Answer:

The equation which correctly relates x and y is y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the direct variation is y = k x, where

k is the constant of variation

To find the value of k, use the initial values of x and y

∵ The variables x and y vary directly

→ Use the form of the equation above

∴ y = k x

∵ When x = 13, y = 52

→ That means the initial values of x and y are 13 and 52

∴ x = 13 and y = 52

→ Substitute them in the equation above to find k

∵ 52 = k (13)

∴ 52 = 13k

→ Divide both sides by 13

∴ 4 = k

∴ The value of k is 4

→ Substitute it in the equation

∴ y = 4x

∴ The equation which correctly relates x and y is y = 4x

ANSWER

$-48-25i$

EXPLANATION

We want to simplify the expression,

$(-19+7i) - (29+32i)$

Let us expand the bracket to obtain,

$-19+7i-29-32i$

We now group the complex number parts and real number parts.

$-19 -29+7i-32i$

We simplify further to obtain,

$- 48-25i$

This is in the form,

$a+bi$

where

$a=-48$

and

$b=-25$

Find the probability of throwing 9 with two dice.

ololo11 [35]

Total number of possible outcomes of throwing two dice = 6×6 = 36
Number of outcomes of getting 9 i.e, (3+6),(4+5),(5+4),(6+3) = 4

$P = \frac{Number \: of \: favourable \: outcomes}{ Total \: number \: of \: possible \: outcomes}$

$P (throwing \: 9) = \frac{4}{36} = \frac{1}{9}$
