Answer: if solving for x....
x= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-5=7
2x-5+5=7+5
2x-5+5=7+5
2x/2= 12/2
x= 6
1.) Which variable did you plot on the x-axis, and which variable did you plot on the y-axis?
x-axis represents people's arms span, y-axis represents their corresponding height
2.) Explain why you assigned the variables in that way.
because you can find the height of people(y) by plugging arm span in x. And i can find people's arm span(x) by plugging height as y
Both questions make use of the formula for the area of a triangle:
.. A = (1/2)*b*h
23. A = (1/2)*b*h
.. A = (1/2)*x*7 . . . . substitute the given values
.. A = 3.5x . . . . . . . simplified
24. A = (1/2)*b*h
.. 84.5 = (1/2)*13*h . . . . . substitute the given values
.. 2*84.5/13 = h = 13 . . . .solve for h
The height of the triangle is 13 cm.
System: x + y = 44; x = 2y + 2
Solve with substitution: x = 30; y = 14
x + y = 44
x = 2y + 2
Substitute 2y + 2 for x
2y + 2 + y = 44
3y + 2 = 44
Subtract 2 on both sides.
3y = 42
y = 14
Now substitute back in.
x + 14 = 44
Subtract 14 on both sides.
x = 30
We have that an inverse variation in a function is given by:
We must find the value of the constant k.
To do this, we substitute the values of x1 = 12, y1 = 15.
We have then:
Clearing k we have:
Substituting the value of k we have that the inverse variation is:
For y2 = 3 we have:
Clearing x2 we have:
