Step-by-step explanation:

When it says y varies directly with x it just means that y and x are proportional/equal to each other. The constant of variation and the constant of proportionality are the same thing just different way of saying it so they can confuse you and make your life miserable. Since y and x are proportional to each other and the constant of proportionalty is -5 to make an equation that represents a line you use the formula y=mx+b. That is the slope of the line. With that formula let's first plus in the x so we have y=m2+b. The formula for direct variation is y=kx as well that's good to know and it's good to memorize all these formulas. Math becaomes easier when you have the process down pat and you just need to plug numbers into different equations, expressions, and scenarios. Do m = [y1 - y2] / [x1 - x2] and you'll get the answer.

while shopping for clothes, Tracey spent 38$ less than 3 times what Daniel spent. write and solve an equation to find how much D

alexandr1967 [171]

$\bold{\huge{\orange{\underline{Solution}}}}$

$\bold{\underline{ Given :- }}$

While shopping for clothes Tracey spent 38$ less than 3 times of what Daniel spent

$\bold{\underline{ To\: Find :- }}$

We have to determine the total cost spent by daniel

$\bold{\underline{ Let's \: Begin :- }}$

Cost spent by Tracey for her clothes = 38$

Let assume the spending by Daniel is x

$\bold{\underline{Therefore ,}}$

$\sf{ x / 3 = 38 }$

$\sf{ x = 38 × 3 }$

$\sf{ x = 114 dollar }$

$\sf{\red{ Hence,\: Daniel\: spent\: 114 \: dollars\: on \: His\: clothes }}$

The probability of picking two black marbles from a box at random without replacement is 10/91 .

sasho [114]

The probability of the 2 events are multiplied to get the result 10/91

so we have the relation 5/14 * x = 10/91

where x is the probability of drawing the second black

so x = 10/91 * 14/5 = 4/13 answer

I'm not the best at writing, but I can try. so here's an idea:you can have as your scenario something like "On a vase shaped like a rectangular prism is a flower. Knowing that the stem of the flower is the diagonal of the prism, the diagonal of the base is 18 and the sinus of the angle between the stem and the diagonal(of the base) is 4/5, find the stem's length and the height of the vase"
