Answer:
Wes
Step-by-step explanation:
This represents a positive correlation, meaning that when x increases, so does y. Because of x, y increases meaning that Wes is correct
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
The least common multiple of {6,8,12} is 24. This can be intuitively figured by noting that any multiple of 12 is a multiple of 6 and that 12 is 1.5x larger than 8. That means we only have so multiple 12 by 2 and 8 by 3 for them to be equal. The GCF of {20,42,72} is 2 as the prime factorization of 20 is 2x2x5 and 42 is 2x3x7. That means even without having to check 72 (which is clearly even so 2 is a factor), we know that 2 is the greatest common factor that they could share. So X/Y = 24/2 = 12
Answer:
x = - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
- 3x + 7 = 28
- 3x + 7 - 7 = 28 - 7
- 3x = 21
- 3x/3 = 21/3
- x = 7
x = - 7
As y varies directly with x, there is a proportionality constant. As x increases by that certain constant, y also increases. We equate:
y = kx
where k = proportionality constant.
Given the condition, y = 5 when x = 4, then we solve for k:
5 = k(4)
k = 5/4 or 1.25
When y = 8, then
8 = (5/4)(x)
x = 8/(5/4) = (8)(4/5) = 32/5 or 6.4 (ANSWER)
The correct answer is 0,10
