Answer:

In y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Taya2010 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

k is the constant

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is simply explained as when a number is directly proportional to another number. For example, when 8 is directly proportional to 4 then it will result to

=> 8= k4, where k is the constant

=> divide both sides by 4 to get k

=> k= 2

helen didvided her colored pencils evenly among herself and three freinds. write an expression to represent the number of pencil
svetoff [14.1K]
So, As Helen divides these pencils, she will divided among, herself, and also her other friends.

This would then signify that the expression would look like the following:

\boxed{p\div(4)}

We really do not know how many pencils Helen had, so this is why <em>p </em>is in the equation.

the measure of angle s = 30 degrees, the measure of arc RS = 84 degrees and line RU is tangent to the circle at R. Find m angle
Paul [167]
Let O be the center of a circle. If <span>the measure of arc RS is 84 degrees, then m∠SOR=84^{0}. The triangle SOR is isoscales (because SO=OR as radii), so m∠RSO=m∠ORS=(180^{0}-84^{0}):2=48^{0}.
</span>
Line RU is tangent to the circle in point R, this means that m∠ORU=90^{0}.
Consider the triangle SRU. m∠RSU=30^{0}  and m∠SRU=48^{0}+90^{0}=138^{0}, then m∠RUS=180^{0}-30^{0}-138^{0}=12^{0}.
ANSWER: Correct choice B - 12^{0}.

What is the LCM of 12,30 and 42
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

420

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the prime factors of each of the numbers first before finding their LCM.

12: <em>2</em> × 2 × <u>3</u>

30: <em>2</em> × <u>3</u> × 5

42: <em>2</em> × <u>3</u> × 7

To find the LCM, we need to see if they are any common prime factors between all three numbers. The common prime factors are <em>2</em> and <u>3</u>. Then, we multiply 2 and 3 with the remaining outstanding factors, which are 2, 5, and 7.

LCM: <em>2</em> × 2 × <u>3</u> × 5 × 7 = 420

A picture is 6 inches longer than it is wide and has an area of 167
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

A) L = W + 6

B) L * W = 167  OR L = 167 / W

Substituting B) into A)

167 / W = W + 6

Multiplying both sides by "W" we get

167 = W^2 + 6W

W^2 + 6W -167

Solving by the quadratic formula

Width = 10.266

Length = 16.266
