we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y=kx
where
k is the constant of proportionality
Verify each table
table a
Let
x ----> distance
y ----> sound level
For each ordered pair calculate the value of k
k=y/x
so
(5,85) -----> k=85/5=17
(10,79) ----> k=79/10=7.9
the values of k are differents
that means
the table nor represent a proportional relationship
table b
let
x ----> volume
y ----> cost
k=y/x
(16,1.49) ----> k=1.49/16=0.093125
(20,1.59) ----> k=1.59/20=0.0795
the values of k are differents
that means
the table nor represent a proportional relationship
Answer:
y=-7x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
2x²+x-14=0
Δ=1+4*14*2=113
x=(-1-√113)/4=-2,8839...≈-2.88
or x=(-1+√113)/4=2,40753≈2.41
Answer:
Veronika's weight = 92 pounds
Kate's weight = 46 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Veronika's weight = x
Let Kate's weight = y
The sum of Veronika's and Kate's weight is 118 pounds.
x + y = 118
Veronika weighs 26 pounds more than Kate.
x = y + 26
How much do they weigh individually?
We substitute y + 26 for x in Equation 1
x + y = 118
y + 26 + y = 118
26 + 2y = 118
2y = 118 - 26
2y = 92
y = 92/2
y = 46 pounds
x = y + 26
x = 46 + 26
x = 92 pounds
Hence,
Veronika's weight = 92 pounds
Kate's weight = 46 pounds
