Answer:

x =7

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct variation equation is y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

If y = 5.5 when x = 11, we can write 5.5 = 11k, which, when solved for k, yields k = 0.5.  

Then the direct variation equation in this case is y = 0.5x.

If y = 3.5, what is x?  y = 0.5x becomes 3.5 = 0.5x, yielding x = 7

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx

5.5=m×11

5.5÷11=m

m=1/2

y=mx

3.5=1/2×x

3.5÷1/2=x

x=7

Suppose that the functions and s are defined for all real numbers x as follows.
abruzzese [7]

(r*s) = (x+1)(3x+4) = 3x² + 3x + 4x + 4 = 3x² + 7x + 4

(r-s)(x) = x+1 - (3x+4) = x + 1 - 3x - 4 = -2x - 3

(r+s)(x) = x + 1 + 3x + 4 = 4x + 5

(r + s)(2) = 4(2) + 5 = 8 + 5 = 13

the sides of a square are each multiplied by 3 to firm a new square. If the area of the original was K, then the area of the squ
Keith_Richards [23]
The area of the new square is 9k. For example if in the original square, each side was 2, then k=4. 2*3=6 so each side would be 6 long. 6*6 is 36 so the new square's area is 9 times the original.
