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

Write out the form of the partial fraction decomposition of the fraction. Do not determine the numerical values of the coefficie

anyanavicka [17]

Factorizing the denominator gives

$\dfrac{x^4}{(x^3+x)(x^2-x+7)} = \dfrac{x^4}{x(x^2+1)(x^2-x+7)} = \dfrac{x^3}{(x^2+1)(x^2-x+7)}$

Then the partial fraction decomposition would take the form

$\dfrac{x^4}{(x^3+x)(x^2-x+7)} = \dfrac{a_0x + b_0}{x^2+1} + \dfrac{a_1x + b_1}{x^2-x+7}$

In the figure shown, r || s. If the measure of ∠ 2 = 146°, what is the measure of ∠ 7

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

34°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, let's find the measure of ∠1 because since r || s, that means ∠1 = ∠7 because they're both alternate exterior angles. Alternate exterior angles are congruent.

2. (Solving for ∠1)
