Suppose y varies directly with x. Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Then find the value of y when x=12

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable.

Given that y varies directly with x, if we introduce a constant of proportionality, k, the expression becomes

y = kx

If y = 8 when x = 3, then

8 = 3k

k = 3/8

Therefore, the direct variation equation that relates x and y is

y = 3x/8

When x = 12, then

y = 3 × 12/8

y = 4.5

Put the terms in order of decreasing degree, all on the left. When convenient, it is nice to have mutually prime integer coefficients with the leading one positive.

a) x² -2x +1 = 0

b) x² +15 = 0

c) 4x² -12 = 0
or, better, divide out the common factor of 4.
  x² -3 = 0

d) 3x² -x -5 = 0

How many dots will figure n have? Explain how you know this.
LenKa [72]
N = ((n-1) + 4) + 4, to my understanding. 
although your answers seem right written in the columns, but your method of applying numbers to equation seems incorrect in 'expand' column. for example, answer for 3 should be something like this...
3   21   17+4
4   25    21+4
hope it helps.

The original price of a computer game is $45. The price is marked down by $18. What percent of the original price is the markdow
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the discount, we must know how much that $ 18 represents of the original price, as follows:

18/45 = 0.4

That is, $ 18 is 40% of $ 45

Therefore, to calculate the discount we must subtract what represents 45%, that is, 100%

100% - 40% = 60%

In other words, the discount is 60%
