Knowing that x varies directly with y, we know the basic skeleton of the equation is
y = mx.
To find
m, plug in the known coordinate
(8,10), where the
x-coordinate is
8 and the
y-coordinate is
10.

Then, plug in m to the equation to get
y = (5/4)x.
Finally, plug in the y-coordinate
18 to the equation and solve for x!

Your exact answer is
x = 72/5. However, if your teacher prefers decimals, then
x = 14.4Hope this helps!
Answer:
1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two numbers less than 3 (1 and 2), and one number greater than 4 (5).
When the first slip is drawn, there are five slips in the hat, so the probability of a number less than 3 is 2/5.
When the second slip is drawn, there are four slips in the hat, so the probability of a number greater than 4 is 1/4.
Therefore, the total probability is (2/5) (1/4) = 1/10
Use the compound interest formula.
A = P*(1 +r/n)^(n*t)
where P is the principal, r is the annual rate, n is the number of compoundings per year, and t is the number of years.
For the first investment, ...
A = 208,000*(1 +.08/4)^(4*5) = 309,077.06
For the second investment, ...
A = 218,000*(1 +.07/2)^(2*4) = 287,064.37
Totaling both investments at maturity, Megan has $596,141.43.
Answer:
The sample of 15 pieces of colored fruit snacks
Step-by-step explanation:
The sample of 15 pieces of colored fruit snacks. The 60 pieces are from ONE day which means it can be heavily biased. It might be like "BLUE RASPBERRY SPECIAL DAY!" or "PRESIDENTS DAY!! RED BLUE AND WHITE!!". However, 15 pieces, whilst having less of a population, is probably more spaced out.
