Answer:
The first option is not a direct variation
Step-by-step explanation:
When we talk of a direct variation, as one value increases, the other value increases too
Or as one value decreases, the other value decreases
A direct variation is of the form;
y = kx
k = y/x
where k is the coefficient of variation that must be a constant value all through the set of values
The values we are comparing here are the x and y values
So
let us take a look at the options;
The first option is not a direct variation
For the first option, the rate of increase is not constant;
2/6 = 1/3 , 8/12 = 2/3 , 14/18 = 7/9
for the second;
the ratio is 1 to 1
for the third;
3/6 = 1/2 ; 6/12 = 1/2; 9/18 = 1/2
for the fourth;
2/6 = 1/3, 4/12 = 1/3 , 6/18 = 1/3
Third, the graph decreases from left to right because if you plug it into a graphing calculator - you can see that the line is a straight line, and does not decrease or increase whatsoever
When X=0, the function would be:
<span>f(x) = 4x^3 -20x2 + 24x
0= </span><span>4x^3 -20x2 + 24x ----->divide all by x
</span>x(4x^2 -20x + 24) =0 ------> split -20x into -12x and -8x
x(4x^2 -12x -8x + 24)
x{4x(x-3) - 8(x -3}
x(4x-8) (x-3)
x1= 0
x2= 8/4= 2
x3= 3
Answer:
Roberto is correct because 15/16 x 4/5 = 3/4.
Roberto's solution to the division problem is correct, but
there are no true statements on your list of choices.
