Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when y varies directly with x, we get the equation

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called the 'constant of direct variation'.

We are given that x = -2 and y = -2

Thus,

The equation is:

y = kx

substituting x = -2 and y = -2

-2 = k(-2)

-2 = -2k

We can further simplify the equation to determine the value of 'k'

so

dividing the equation by -2

-2/-2 = -2k/-2

1 = k

Therefore, the value of k = 1

Thus, the equation becomes

y = kx

substituting k = 1 in the equation

y = (1)x

y = x

Therefore, an equation that relates x and y is:

y = x

x + 4/3x^3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=1/2x^2-2/3x^-2

dy/dx=1/2(2x)-2/3(-2x^-3)

=x+4/3 x^-3

=x+4/3x^3

B Which of the statements is true about the polygons below E D 120 degrees C 90 90 60 60 120 degrees 90 90 F D Polygon A Polygon
Serhud [2]

The statement that is true about the polygons is: the opposite angles of the rectangle are supplementary, therefore, a circle can be circumscribed about the rectangle.

<h3>What is a Circumscribed Quadrilateral?</h3>

An circumscribed quadrilateral is a quadrilateral whose four side lie tangent to the circumference of a circle. The opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, that is, when added together, their sum equals 180 degrees.

From the two figures given, the opposite angles of the rectangle are supplementary, therefore, a circle can be circumscribed about the rectangle. (Option D).
