Answer:

y is directly proportional to x

<u>y=kx</u>, where k is a constant

Now, y=12 when x=15

12 = k \times 15 \\ k =  \frac{12}{15}  \\  \boxed{k = 0.8}

When x=2,

y = 0.8 \times 2 \\  \boxed{y = 1.6}

<h3><em><u>Equation: y=</u></em><em><u>kx</u></em></h3><h3><em><u> y: 1.6</u></em></h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is directly proportional to x,

we have y = kx, where k is a real constant.

When x = 15, y = 12.

=> (12) = k(15), k = 0.8.

Therefore we have y = 0.8x.

When x = 2, y = 0.8(2) = 1.6.

The answer is y = 1.6 when x = 2.

Phyllis invested 32000 dollars, a portion earing a simple interest rate of 5 percent per year and the rest earning a rate of 6 p
il63 [147K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • $10,000 at 5%
  • $22,000 at 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 6%. Then 32000-x is the amount invested at 5%, and the total interest earned is ...

  0.06x +0.05(32000 -x) = 1820

  0.01x +1600 = 1820 . . . . simplify

  0.01x = 220 . . . . . . . . . .  subtract 1600

  x = 22,000 . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 100

  32000 -x = 10,000

Phyllis invested $22,000 at 6% and $10,000 at 5%.

Which linear equation has a greater slope?<br> y = 2x + 1<br> Or<br> y = -1x + 4
Dafna11 [192]
Linear functions have the general form y=mx+b, where m is the slope. The first function has a slope of 2, while the second one has a slope of -1, so y=2x+1 has a greater slope.

Find the probability of rolling an odd sum or a sum less than 7 when a pair of dice is rolled
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

For the pairs that satisfy that the sum is less than 7 we have:

(1,1) (2,1) (1,2) (3,1) (2,2) (1,3) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (5,1) (4.2) (3,3) (2,4) (1,5)

So we have a total of 15 pairs where the sum is less than 7

And for an odd sum we have the following pairs

(2,1) (1,2) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (6,2) (5,2) (4,3) (3,4) (2,5) (1,6) (6,3) (5,4) (4,5) (3,6) (6,5) (5,6)

A total of 18 pairs and we have 6 pairs who are in both cases for the sum less than 7 and the sum an odd number that represent the intersection and using the total probability rule we got:

P = \frac{15+18-6}{36}= \frac{27}{33}= 0.818

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case when a pair of dice is rolled we have the following sample pace for the outcomes:

(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)

(2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4,1) (4,2) (4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5,1) (5,2) (5,3) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6,1) (6,2) (6,3) (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)

We see 36 possible outcomes and we want to find how many of these pairs we got rolling an odd sum or a sum less than 7

For the pairs that satisfy that the sum is less than 7 we have:

(1,1) (2,1) (1,2) (3,1) (2,2) (1,3) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (5,1) (4.2) (3,3) (2,4) (1,5)

So we have a total of 15 pairs where the sum is less than 7

And for an odd sum we have the following pairs

(2,1) (1,2) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) (1,4) (6,2) (5,2) (4,3) (3,4) (2,5) (1,6) (6,3) (5,4) (4,5) (3,6) (6,5) (5,6)

A total of 18 pairs and we have 6 pairs who are in both cases for the sum less than 7 and the sum an odd number that represent the intersection and using the total probability rule we got:

P = \frac{15+18-6}{36}= \frac{27}{33}= 0.818

Find the slope of the line containing the pair of points. ​(​7,​4) and ​(6​,-9​)
lesya [120]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula to find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -9-4)/(6-7)

   = -13/-1

  = 13
