Direct variation is y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.
But now it says y varies directly with x2 (or 2x), so now the x in the equation is 2x.
The equation is y = k(2x)
Now you find k.
y = 96 when x = 4.
(96) = k(2*4)
96 = k(8)
k = 12
The equation is now y = 12(2x)
To find the value of y when x=2, plug 2 into the equation you made.
y = 12(2*2)
y = 48

Now it's with a "quadratic variation," which is the same thing except x is squared.
The equation is y = kx^2
But y varies directly with x2 (same thing as 2x), so now it's y = k(2x)^2.
Now you find k by substituting y and x values that were given.
y = 180 when x = 6
(180) = k(2*6)^2
180 = k(12)^2
180 = k(144)
k = 1.25
k, 1.25, is the constant of variation.
Answer:
y = 5x + 10
y = 0.75x + 4

Answer:
An algebraic expression is an expression which consists of variables, coefficients, constants, and mathematical operators such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Generally, if two things are the same, then it is called equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!!
A chicken has 1 head and 2 feet . A goat has 1 head and 4 feet
For heads, total = 40
Let us take the number of chickens as ' x ' and goats as ' y '
x + y = 40 ------------- ( 1 )
2x + 4y = 150 ----------- ( 2 )
Multiply the first equation with 2
2x + 2y = 80
2x + 4y = 150
Subtract the first equation from the first
2y = 70
y = 35
Number of goats = 35
substitute this in other equation
x + y = 40
x + 35 = 40
x = 5
Number of chickens are 4
Hope it helps!
