Answer:

(a) x = -2y

Step-by-step explanation:

You can tell if an equation is a direct variation equation if it can be written in the format y = kx.

Note that there is no addition and subtraction in this equation.

Let's put these equations in the form y = kx.

(a) x = -2y

y = x/-2 → y = -1/2x
This is equivalent to multiplying x by -1/2, so this is an example of direct variation.

(b) x + 2y = 12

2y = 12 - x
y = 6 - 1/2x
This is not in the form y = kx since we are adding 6 to -1/2x. Therefore, this is NOT an example of direct variation.

-2y = -3x
y = 3/2x
This follows the format of y = kx, so it is an example of direct variation.

(d) 5x² + y = 0

y = -5x²
This is not in the form of y = kx, so it is NOT an example of direct variation.

(e) y = 0.3x + 1.6

1.6 is being added to 0.3x, so it is NOT an example of direct variation.

(f) y - 2 = x

y = x + 2
2 is being added to x, so it is NOT an example of direct variation.

The following equations are examples of direct variation:

x = -2y
3x - 2y = 0

Answer:

(a) x = -2y

Step-by-step explanation:

You can tell if an equation is a direct variation equation if it can be written in the format y = kx.

Note that there is no addition and subtraction in this equation.

Let's put these equations in the form y = kx.

(a) x = -2y

y = x/-2 → y = -1/2x

This is equivalent to multiplying x by -1/2, so this is an example of direct variation.

(b) x + 2y = 12

2y = 12 - x

y = 6 - 1/2x

This is not in the form y = kx since we are adding 6 to -1/2x. Therefore, this is NOT an example of direct variation.

-2y = -3x

y = 3/2x

This follows the format of y = kx, so it is an example of direct variation.

(d) 5x² + y = 0

y = -5x²

This is not in the form of y = kx, so it is NOT an example of direct variation.

(e) y = 0.3x + 1.6

1.6 is being added to 0.3x, so it is NOT an example of direct variation.

(f) y - 2 = x

y = x + 2

2 is being added to x, so it is NOT an example of direct variation.

The following equations are examples of direct variation:

x = -2y

3x - 2y = 0

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 4) and (6, 12)

Aleks [24]

The answer is 2.

The formula for slop is y2-y1/x2-x1
Using this formula we get 12-4/6-2 or 8/4 which simplifies to 2.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Let's call:

f = price of 1 cup of dried fruit

a = price of 1 cup of almonds

In order to build the linear system, you need to consider that the total price of a bag is given by the sum of the price of cups times the number of cups in each bag, therefore:

Solve for a in first equation:

a = (6 - 3f) / 4

Then substitute in the second equation:

41/2 f + 6 · (6 - 3f) / 4 = 9

41/2 f + 9 - 9/2 f = 9

16 f = 0

f = 0

Now, substitute this value in the formula found for a:

a = (6 - 3·0) / 4

= 3/2 = 1.5

Hence, the cups of dried fruit are free and 1 cup of almond costs 1.5$

A cone has a height 25 ft and a radius of 7 ft. Is a reasonable that the volume of this cone is 100 ft3? Why or why not?

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the radius squared is 49 times π, which is roughly 3 means the area of the base is roughly 150 ft².

This means that one third of the height cannot be more than 100 / 150 = 2/3 of a foot. That makes the height about 2 ft, much less than the reported 25 ft.
