Answer:

y=2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

first make the equation to interpret the question

x=k/y

find the value of k, which is a constant

when x=5 and y=2

5=k/2

k=10.

hence, find y when x=15

x=k/y

x=10/y

15=10/y

cross multiply

15y=10

divide both sides by 15

y=10/15

y=2/3

Answer:

y would be 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 5 x 3 would be 15

then you would do 2 x 3 would be 6

Line AB passes through A(-3, 0) and B(-6, 5). What is the equation of the line that passes through the origin and is parallel to
amid [387]

parallel means "same slope (m)"

m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{0 - 5}{-3 - (-6)} = \frac{-5}{-3 + 6} = \frac{-5}{3}

Now, input the point (0, 0) and the slope (\frac{-5}{3}) into the Point-Slope formula:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 0 = \frac{-5}{3}(x - 0)

    y = \frac{-5}{3}x

 3y = -5x    <em>multiplied both sides by 3</em>

 0   = -5x - 3y  <em>subtracted 3y from both sides</em>

Which statement best describes how to determine whether f(x) = x3 + 5x + 1 is an even function?
kvasek [131]

Answer: Determine whether (–x)3 + 5(–x) + 1 is equivalent to x3 + 5x + 1.

To determine if a function is even, we need to check if f(-x)=f(x).

Some information about the given equation:
the given equation is like the form of the </span>Cardioid

A curve that is somewhat heart shaped. A cardioid can be drawn by tracing the path of a point on a circle as the circle rolls around a fixed circle of the same radius. The equation is usually written in polar coordinates.
Equations of Cardioid:
