We are given that y varies directly with c.

We need a constant of proportionality. I decided to let c be the constant of proportionality.

y = cx

7 = 2c

7/2 = c

We are now given the value of y to be 84 and must find x.

y = cx

84 = (7/2)x

84 ÷ (7/2) = x

24 = x

Answer:

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x*c

x=2, y=7

2*c=7 => c=7/2

x*7/2 = 84

x = 84*2/7

x = 12*2

x = 24

estamos construyendo una carretera que enlace los puntos a = 12 ,21 y b =(17,23) otro punto se encuentra en c =(3,9) es posible

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

is not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in English is

we are building a road that links the points a = (12 ,21) and b =(17,23) another point is in c =(3,9) it is possible that a single road allows to join these three points?

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find the slope ab

we have

a = (12 ,21) and b =(17,23)

substitute

$m=\frac{23-21}{17-12}$

$m=\frac{2}{5}$

step 2

Find the slope ac

we have

a = (12 ,21) and c =(3,9)

substitute

$m=\frac{9-21}{3-12}$

$m=\frac{-12}{-9}$

simplify

$m=\frac{4}{3}$

step 3

Compare slopes ab and ac

The slopes are different

That means ----> is not possible that a single road allows to join these three points
