Y is directly proportional to x squared. if y=12 when x=2 find x when y=48

Mathematics

Alexxx [7]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx²

NOTE: k is constant for proportionality

putting values for x and y

if x is 2

and y is 12

12 = k(2)²

12 = k4

12 = 4k

divide both sides by coefficient of k

12÷4 = 4k ÷ 4

k=3

substitute 3 for k

therefore when

y is 48

and k is constant 3

then x will be:

48=3x²

divide both sides by coefficient of x²

48 divide by 3 = 3x² divide by 3

16=x²

take the square root of both sides

√16 = √x²

x = 4

A rancher uses a bucket that holds 15,000 milliliters of water to fill a water trough for her horse. The trough holds 2.7 x 10^5
klasskru [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of the bucket is

15,000 = 1.5 × 10⁴ ml

the trough holds

2.7 × 10⁵ ml

by calculating how often the volume of the bucket fits into the volume of the trough, we will know how many buckets of water are needed :

2.7 × 10⁵ / (1.5 × 10⁴) = 2.7/1.5 × 10⁵/10⁴ = 2.7/1.5 × 10¹ =

= 27/1.5 = 18

the rancher needs 18 buckets of water to fill the trough.

What is the approximate area of the shaded region
Rudiy27
That 10 is the diameter of the circle.
First let's find the area of the square.
A = s^2
Where 's' is the side.
A = 10^2
A = 100
Now let's find the area of the circle.
The '10' is also the diameter of the circle.
A = pi * r^2
A = 3.14 * 5^2
A = 3.14 * 25
A = 78.5
Now subtract this from the area of the square.
100 - 78.5 = 21.5
So the approximate area of the shaded region is 21.5cm^2

Given f(x) and g(x) = f(x) + k, use the graph to determine the value of k.
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

  k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of k is the amount by which the function f(x) is translated upward to give the function g(x). We can compare y-intercepts to see that the y-intercept of g(x) is 5 -2 = 3 units more than the y-intercept of f(x). This means ...

  g(x) = f(x) +3

Comparing to ...

  g(x) = f(x) +k

we see that k = 3.
