Answer:

Option C = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

In principle when a function <em>f(x) </em>varies directly with <em>x</em> it suggests that any changes in x results in the equivalent changes in<em> f(x)</em>. If we have two variables, i.e. <em>y</em> representing<em> f(x)</em> and <em>x</em> representing itself, any increment/decrement in <em>x</em> will result to the same increment/decrement in <em>y</em> by a factor <em>a, thus we can say that y = ax, implying y and x have the same ratio. </em>

In the given question we know that <em>f(x) = 45</em> when x=9<em>, </em>which translates as

f(x=9) = 45

This tells us that f(x) varies by a factor (lets call it) a for a given value of x.

To find this factor we can just divide 45 with 9 which gives: \frac{45}{9} = 5

Thus the factor a here is a=5 which finally tells us that

f(x) = 5x    Eqn (1) our original function.

Since we now know our function we can plug in the value for x=3 and solve for f(x=3) as follow:

f(x=3)= 5*3

f(x=3) = 15

f(3) = 15

Looking at the given options in the question we can conclude that the correct answer is Option C = 15

I just need help on number 14. Thank you very much.

I believe you only need to know one angle.

For example, if you know angle 1, you can calculate angle 3. Angle 2 = angle 3 and angle 4 = angle 1.

Also, Angle 5= angle 1 and so on...

100 &lt;---- 2 zeros
Tom [10]
The number 100 -> that has 2 zeros
Is the same as 10^2 as for this simplified is equal to 100.
100=100
They are the same. They have the same number of zeros.

Brianne evaluated the expression 42+4(6-2)
Levart [38]

Answer:

Follow the rule of BODMAS (brackets, of, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction)

Ans: 58

Step-by-step explanation:

42 + 4(6 - 2)                           Process --> 6 - 2 = 4

= 42 + 4 * 4                            Process --> 4 * 4 = 16

= 42 + 16                                Process --> 42 + 16 = 58

= 58

Hope this helps :)

Solve 7x+3y=8 and 4x-y=-9 simultaneously
Jobisdone [24]

Answer: x = -1 and y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 3y = 8 ........................... equation 1

4x - y = - 9 ............................ equation 2

Solving the simultaneous linear equation by substitution method , make y the subject of the formula from equation 2 , we have

y = 4x + 9 ............................. equation 3

substitute y = 4x + 9 into equation 1 , we have;

7x + 3 ( 4x + 9 ) = 8

7x + 12x + 27 = 8

19x + 27 = 8

subtract 27 from both sides

19x = -19

divide through by 19

x = -1

substitute x = -1 into equation 3 , we have

y = 4 ( -1) + 9

y = -4 + 9

y = 5

Therefore :

x = -1 and y = 5
