Y varies directly as x, if y=9 x=3 find x when y=-27

Mathematics
1 answer:
jonny [76]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard equation of direct variation:

y = kx

We need to find k.

We use the given point.

When x = 3, y = 9.

9 = k * 3

k = 3

Our equation is

y = 3x

Now we find x when y = -27.

y = 3x

-27 = 3x

x = -9

Which is a right triangle formed using a diagonal through the interior of the cube? A cube. The top face has points G, B, C, F a
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: The correct option is triangle GDC

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for further details.

The dimensions give for the cube are such that the top surface has vertices GBCF while the bottom surface has vertices HADE.

A right angle can be formed in quite a number of ways since the cube has right angles on all six surfaces. However the question states that the diagonal that forms the right angle runs "through the interior."

Therefore option 1 is not correct since the diagonal formed in triangle BDH passes through two surfaces. Triangle DCB is also formed with its diagonal passing only along one of the surfaces. Triangle GHE is also formed with its diagonal running through one of the surfaces.

However, triangle GDC is formed with its diagonal passing through the interior as shown by the "zigzag" line from point G to point D. And then you have another line running from vertex D to vertex C.

A rectangle with an area of 192 square meters has a length and width in a ratio of 3:1. What are the length and width?
yuradex [85]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

Length = 24 meters.

Width = 8 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that to find the area of a rectangle, the formula is as shown:

A = l × w

In this case, the length is 3 times the length of the width, or 3 : 1.

Let w = width, and

3w = length.

Find the value of w by plugging in these values into the equation:

192 = 3w · w

192 = 3w²

Divide both sides by 3:

64 = w²

Square root both sides:

w = 8 meters. This is the width.

The length is equivalent to 3w, so:

3(8) = 24 meters.
