Since y varies directly with x, we know that a multiplier of k will be multiplied by x.

y = kx

In order to use this equation we need to know the value of k.  That is why they gave us known values of x & y.

"when y = –51, x = 3"

Plug these values into our equation and solve for k.

–51 = k(3)

–51/3 = k   Divide both sides by 3

k = –17  Simplify

Now that we know k our equation from here on is:

y = –17x

Now we can use this equation to solve y if x = 2 by plugging in 2 for x.

y = –17(2)

y = –34  FINAL ANSWER

Help I guess? sorry I'm asking a lot of questions today

Answer:

63 houses have been sold this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 81 houses in the community. If 7/9 are sold this year, then all you have to do is multiplication.

In this case, you would multiply 81 by 7/9 to get your answer.

81/1 x 7/9:

Cancel out the 9 and the 81. Then the denominator will be 1 x 1 and the numerator would be 7 x 9. It would be 63 (7x9=63) over 1 (1x1=1) which is just 63. Make sure to include units.

I NEED HELP !!! 30 points!!!! and brainliest :)<br><br>please give sensible answer :(<br><br><br>​

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9) PQR Is an isosceles triangle

=> ∠PRQ = (180° - x)/2

PRS is an isosceles right triangle

=> ∠PRS = 45°

Have: ∠PRS + ∠PRQ = 115°

=> \frac{180-x}{2}+45=115 \\

=> 180 - x = (115 - 45).2 = 140

<=> x = 180 - 140 = 40

10) ABD is an isosceles right triangle => ∠ABD = 45°

BCD is an equilateral triangle => ∠CBD = 60°

have: x = ∠ABD + ∠CBD = 45° + 60° = 105°

11) have: x = y (2)

PQT is an isosceles triangle => ∠PQT = 180 - 70.2 = 40

QTS   is an isosceles triangle => ∠TQS = 180 -2x

QRS   is an isosceles triangle => ∠RSQ = y

have: 40 + 180 - 2x + y = 180 => 2x - y = 40 (1)

(1)(2) => \left \{ {{y=x} \atop {2x-y=40}} \right.\\\\=> \left \{ {{x=40} \atop {y=40}} \right.

=> x + y = 80

12) EFJ Is an equilateral  triangle => ∠FJE = 60

∠FJE is the outer angle of the triangle FHJ but FHJ is an isosceles triangle

=> 60 = 2.∠JHF => ∠JHF = 30°

∠JHF is the outer angle of the triangle FHG

=> 30° = 2x

<=> x = 15°

Select all of the values for a that would make the inequality 2x &gt; 10 true.
babunello [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x > 10       Divide by 2

2x/2 >10/2

x > 5

x cannot be 5 or anything smaller.

In English, x >5 reads as x must be greater than 5. (It can't be equal to 5 because 5 is not greater than 5)

The only two items that work are

8 which is greater than 5 and

30 which is also greater than 5
