If the value of "Y" varies directly with "X" and y=-8,when x=20,find "Y"if x=-4

Answer:

y is 8/5 when x = -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the value of "Y" varies directly with "X", we can write y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

If "y=-8,when x=20," then we can find k:    -8 = 20k, or k = -2/5.

Then y = (-2/5)x.

If x = -4, then y = (-2/5)(-4) = 8/5

y is 8/5 when x = -4.

horsena [70]

Answer:

D. y = 2x + 3​

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the table to answer the question.

x:-2  -1   0   1    2

y: -1   1   3   5   7

Which equation represents the relationship between x and y shown in the table.

Solution:

The table shows a linear relationship between x and y.

A linear equation is in the form y = mx + b, where y is a dependent variable, x is an independent variable, m is the rate of change (slope) and b is the value of y when x = 0.

The table (x, y) has the points (-2, -1) and (0, 3). The equation is given by:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-(-1)= \frac{3-(-1)}{0-(-2)} (x-(-2))\\\\y+1=2(x+2)\\\\y+1=2x+4\\\\y=2x+3

The cost of off-campus living for U of O students is normally distributed. The Office of the Registrar estimates that on average
evablogger [386]

Answer:

H1 : μ < 1225

Step-by-step explanation:

The alternative hypothesis in carrying out a statistical test could be explained as a notion which aims to displace or rival an initial position, the null hypothesis.

When declaring an hypothesis, the statement compares the initial or population mean in the hypothesis statement and not the result or outcome of the sample statistic.

In the scenario above :

The null is of the notion that :

H0 : μ = 1225 ;

Hence, the stance of the alternative which is that the mean is lower or less will be written as :

H1 : μ < 1225

Test each statement below to see if it is reversible. If so, write it as a true biconditional. If not, write not reversible
FinnZ [79.3K]
Statement: Complementary angles are two angles with measures that have a sum of 90.
Reverse: Two angles with measures that have a sum of 90 are complementary angles.

Here the reverse is true, therefore, the statement is true biconditional.

Statement: A rectangle is a four-sided figure with at least one right angle.
Reverse: A four sided figure with at least one right angle is a rectangle.

Here, the reverse is not true, therefore, the statement is not reversible.

Each unit on the grid stands for one miles determine two ways to calculate the distance from josie's house to annies
Novosadov [1.4K]
I encountered this problem before but it had an accompanying image and list of answer choices.

I'll attach the image and include the list of options. 

Each unit on the grid stands for one mile. Determine two ways to calculate the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.
A) Distance Formula and Slope Formula
B) Midpoint Formula and Slope Formula
C) Distance Formula and Midpoint Formula
<span>D) Distance Formula and Pythagorean Theorem
</span>
My answer is: D.) Distance formula and Pythagorean Theorem.

When looking at the image, I can visualize a right triangle. I'll simply get the measure of the long and short legs and solve for the hypotenuse. 
Since the distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem, it can be used to determine the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.
