Replace the value of x and y into the equations and see if they solve:

x = -5, y = 24

24 = 0.28(-5),  24 = -1.4 False
24 = 0.28(-5) +3.6, 24 = 2.2 False

-5 = 3.6(24), -5 = 86.4 False
 none of the given equations work, so there is no direct variation

Hello!
----------
There is no direct variation in the age and height.
----------
WORK: 0.28*-5= -1.4
             0.28*-5+3.6=2.2
             3.6*24=86.4
----------
Hope this helps and have a great day!

During a sale at a bookstore, a customer buys one book at full price. The customer is given a 25 percent discount on a second bo
RoseWind [281]
Amount paid for the first book is $17.

Amount paid for the second book is 0.75 x 8 = $6

Total amount paid = $17 + $6 = $23

Total full cost of the two books = $17 + $8 = $25

Amount of discount = $25 - $23 = $2

% reduction = \frac{2}{25} \times100\%=8\%

Therefore, the <span>percent of the total cost of the two books reduced during the sale</span> is 8%

What is the factorization?
Marysya12 [62]

we can see that

the given curve is parabola

so, firstly we will find vertex

vertex is (4,0)

we can write equation of parabola

y=(x-h)^2+k

now, we can plug values

and we get

y=(x-4)^2+0

we can also write it as

y=(x-4)(x-4).............Answer

vodomira [7]

Answer:

x = 25.8^{o} and y = 51.4^{o}

Step-by-step explanation:

Known that he sum of angles on a straight line is 180^{o}. From the diagram;

2y + x + y = 180^{o}

x + 3y = 180^{o} ................ 1

Also,

2x + x + 2y = 180^{o}

3x + 2y = 180^{o} .............. 2

Using the elimination method, multiply equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 1

3x + 9y = 540 ............ 3

3x + 2y = 180^{o} ............. 4

7y = 360

y = \frac{360}{7}

y = 51.4^{o}

substitute the value of y in equation 1,

x + 3y = 180^{o}

x + 3(51.4) = 180^{o}

x + 154.2 = 180^{o}

x = 180^{o} - 154.2

x = 25.8^{o}

Thus, x = 25.8^{o} and y = 51.4^{o}
