Answer:
30 students are in the science class and 3 students recieved a failing grade.
Step-by-step explanation:
do you mean less than or equal to
x/3<= -6 x 3
x<= -18
Answer:
7/3 is constant of proportionality and, 3/7 of a cup of red paint should be added to 1 cup of white paint.
Step-by-step explanation:
Constant of proportionality is the constant value of the ratio of two proportional quantities x and y; usually written y = kx, where k is the factor of proportionality.
To make color pink,
for every 3 cups of red , we need 7 cups of white.
Let 'r' be the cups of red required
let 'w' be the cups of white required
so , as per the question
for 3 r we need = 7 w
r = 7/3 w
so, 7/3 is constant of proportionality and, 3/7 of a cup of red paint should be added to 1 cup of white paint.
You already have the answer! ;)
You haven't shared "the given value of x," or, if you have, you haven't drawn attention to it.
Just suppose we were to choose x = 4 as a possible solution and then try to find a value of the parameter k that would make x = 4 an actual solution.
2(4) + 4k - 9 = (4)(4) - (4) + 1
Then 8 + 4k - 9 = 16 - 4 + 1, or 4k - 1 = 13. Then 4k = 14, and k = 14/4, or (after reduction) k = 7/2
If the parameter k equals 7/2, then x = 4 is a solution to the given equation.
To check this out further, start with the proposed solution x = 5 and find k.
