This graph shows a proportional relationship.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alisiya [41]3 years ago

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is:

  • k = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when y varies directly with x, we get

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called the constant of proportionality

From the graph, it is clear that the point (2/5, 1/2) passes through the line which represents the direct relationship.

so we have the point (2/5, 1/2), and

x = 2/5

y = 1/2

so substituting x = 2/5 and y = 1/2 in the equation

k = y/x

k = [1/2] / [2/5]

k = [1 × 5 ] /  [2 × 2 ]

k = 5/4

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is:

  • k = 5/4

Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular polygon is a shape with equal sides and angles. Because of this, we can write the following equation to set two sides equal to each other:

3a+b+3=2a+2b+6

Solving, we will get a in terms of b:

3a=2a+b+3,\\a=b+3

Now we can substitute a for (b+3) into our equation:

5a-2b+1=2a+2b+6,\\5(b+3)-2b+1=2(b+3)+2b+6,\\3b+16=4b+12,\\-b=-4,\\b=\boxed{4}

Therefore, the length of each side of this polygon is 5(4+3)-2(4)+1=28.

Since the perimeter of the polygon consists of all five sides, the perimeter is:

p=28\cdot 5 =\boxed{140}

Complete the square to solve 4x^2 + 24x = 4
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

4x^2+24x=4

Step 1:

make the coefficient of x² as 1, divide both sides by 4

x² +6x =1

Step 2:

take half of coefficient of x, square it and add it to both sides

half of 6 is 3 and 3²=9, so add 9 to both sides

x² +6x+9=1+9

x²+6x+3²=10

(x+3)²=10

now when we take square root we will get both + and - √10 on right side

x+3= +√10

x+3=-√10

solving for x

x=+√10-3

What is your opinion that we should raise the drinking/smoking ages to 21?
timofeeve [1]
In my opinion the ages for drinking/smoking should not be raised to 21. While I am not a fan of either and they almost never lead to good things, it just seems odd to me that a person can fight for his country at 18, but can't smoke or drink.
