Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of direct variation is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k divide both sides by x
= k
That is the constant is the ratio of y- values to x- values
Since 10 is a positive the opposite must be negative. Opposite integer of 10 is -10 ( negative 10).
Happy studying ^-^
So first you distribute the 5 to the x and the +2 and get
5x+10=3(x+8)
then you distribute the 3 to the other x and the +8 and get
5x+10=3x+24
subtract 3x from both sides
2x+10=24
subtract 10 from both sides and get
2x=14
divide both sides by 2 and get
x=7
The jeep gets 22 miles per gallon...
he has 5 gallons in the tank already....
buys gas at 1.25 per gallon.....spends $ 22...so he buys 22 / 1.25 = 17.6 gallons
so he has a total of (5 + 17.6) = 22.6 gallons....at 22 miles per gallon =
22.6 * 22 = 497.2 miles <==
