As y varies directly with x, there is a proportionality constant. As x increases by that certain constant, y also increases. We equate:
y = kx
where k = proportionality constant.
Given the condition, y = 5 when x = 4, then we solve for k:
5 = k(4)
k = 5/4 or 1.25
When y = 8, then
8 = (5/4)(x)
x = 8/(5/4) = (8)(4/5) = 32/5 or 6.4 (ANSWER)
Answer:
False (under assumption T(2,-3) means move it right 2 units and down 3 units).
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is false.
T(2,-3) means move the point right 2 (so plus 2 on the x-coordinate) and down 3 units (so minus 3 on the y-coordinate).
So (1,6) will become (1+2,6-3)=(3,3) after the translation.
The point (1,12) will become (1+2,12-3)=(3,9).
If the statement were "Under the translation T(2,-3) the point (1,12) will become (3,9)", then it would be true.
Or!
If the statement were "Under the translation T(2,3) the point (1,6) will become (3,9)", then it would be true.
Answer:
(a) Number of inches that have burned from the candle since it was lit is (1.1t) inches
(b) The remaining length of the candle is (16 - 1.1t) inches
Step-by-step explanation:
(a). Length of candle before it was lit = 16 inches
Constant rate at which at which candle burns = 1.1 inches per hour
Let t represent the number of hours that have elapsed since the candle was lit
In 1 hour, 1.1 inches of the candle burned
Therefore, in t hours, (1.1t) inches of the candle would have burned since the candle was lit
(b) Remaining length of candle = length of candle before it was lit - length of candle that have burned = 16 inches - 1.1t inches = (16 - 1.1t) inches
