Answer:

$xy=72$

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is inversely porportionaly to y, then for some constant k,

$x = \frac{k}{y}\\xy=k$

Since y is 4 when x = 18, k is equal to 4*18=72, so the equation is:

$xy=72$

Find the value of x so that (x,-4) is on the line given by -2x + 3y = 6.

lord [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 3y = 6.....(x, -4)...so y = -4

-2x + 3(-4) = 6

-2x - 12 = 6

-2x = 6 + 12

-2x = 18

x = -18/2

x = -9

so the value of x is -9.....(-9,-4)

Which equation has the same soultions as x^2+6×-7=0

blagie [28]

$x^2+6x-7=0 \\ a=1 \\ b= 6 \\ c=-7 \\ \\ \boxed{\boxed{\Delta=b^2-4ac}} \\ \\ \Delta=6^2-4*1*(-7) \\ \Delta=36-(-28) \\ \Delta=64 \\ \Delta\ \textgreater \ 0 \Rightarrow \text{we have 2 solutions :} X_1 \ and X_2 \\ \\ \boxed{X_1= \frac{-b- \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} } \Rightarrow X_1= \frac{-6-8}{2}=-7 \\ \\ \boxed{X_2= \frac{-b+ \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} } \Rightarrow X_2= \frac{-6+8}{2} =1$
