Answer:

x = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

y α x

we introduce a constant 'k' when changing from α to =.

i.e y = kx

y = ⅓ when x = 12

Meaning, ⅓ = k * 12

⅓ = 12k

k = ⅓ ÷ 12

k = 1/36

If y = 4, x = ?

using the equation y = kx

4 = (1/36)x

x = 4 ÷ (1/36)

x = 4 * 36

x = 144

Solve the proportion 4/x=8/(x-3)
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

4/x=8/(x-3)

We can solve this using cross products

4 ( x-3) = 8x

Distribute

4x -12 = 8x

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-4x-12 = 8x-12-4x

-12 =4x

Divide each side by 4

-12/4 = 4x/4

-3 =x

The points (4,k) and (5,-8) fall on a line with a slope of -7. what is the value of k?
babunello [35]

Answer:

k= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find k, use the points and the m =-7 in the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\-7=\frac{-8-k}{5-4} \\\\-7 = \frac{-8-k}{1}\\\\-7=-8-k\\\\k = -8+7\\\\k=-1

Is x and x2 like terms or unlike terms​
babymother [125]

Like terms" are terms whose variables (and their exponents such as the 2 in x2) are the same. In other words, terms that are "like" each other. Note: the coefficients (the numbers you multiply by, such as "5" in 5x) can be different.
