First, you plug in the first set of numbers into the direct variation equation (y=kx). This will be 6 = k(10). Then, you solve for the variable k. Divide 6 by 10 to get k alone on the right side, and k equals 3/5. Then, you plug in y and k to find the new x number. This would be 18 = 3/5(x). Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 3/5 to get x alone on the right side. This would make x = 30. If y = 18 and the variables vary directly, x would be equal to 30. Hope you have a great day!

What is the reduced answer to 4/9 multiples by 4/5 equal
deff fn [24]
First, we know that when multiplying fractions, we multiply both the numerator and denominator.

so, in 4/9 • 4/5,
4•4 = 16, and
9•5 = 45

so, 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45.
now, we’ll look for the Least Common Factor

factors are numbers that you can multiply together to = another number.
the LEAST common Factor is the # that is smallest that you can divide both numbers by, in an equation and get a whole number.

for instance, 3•3 and 1•9 are the only ways to get 9, so, the factors are 1, 3, 9

let’s look for the LCF in 16 and 45. -
if we find the ways to get 16, we have:
1•16, 2•8, and 4•4
so, the factors are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
this is called FACTORING :)

the ways to get 45 are...
1•45, 3•15, and 5•9, so the FACTORS are
1, 3, 5, 9, 15, & 45.
- compare the factors of 16 & 45,
none of them are the same besides 1, and we know that dividing these numbers by 1 will not do anything.

because of this, we can not reduce 16/45, so the reduced answer to 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45

A single die is rolled. Find the odds in favor of rolling a number greater than 5
NeX [460]

Answer:

A die has 6 numbers.

So 6 numbers them being
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

There’s only one number greater then 5 which is 6.
Since its 6 numbers, a die has a 1/6 chance of getting your desired number.

So it’s a 1/6 chance.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Looking at the two black dots

5 bulbs cost $9

Divide total cost by number of bulbs bought:

9 / 5 = $1.80 per bulb.

10 bulbs cost $18

Divide total cost by number of bulbs bought:

18 / 10 = $1.80 per bulb

The cost for one bulb is $1.80
