X and y are in direct proportion, when x is 8, y is 12. Which of the following is not a

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nat2105 [25]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

d.

Step-by-step explanation:

if x varies directly as y,

x = ky

8 = 12k

12k = 8

k = 8/ 12

k = 2/3,

x = 2/3 y

now substitute the value of any of the numbers of each pair, and check if it works:

for e.g, find x when y = 15

x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 15

x = 10

since you obtain x = 10 when y = 15, the pair is a possible corresponding value of x and y. now do the same for the rest .

ii) x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 3, when y = 3

x = 2

hence, this is also a possible pair of x and y values.

iii) x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 9 when y = 9

x = 6

again, a possible pair of x and y values.

iv) x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 20 when y = 20

x = 40/3

here, when y = 20, x is not 15. it is 40/3.

thus, it can be determined that this is not a possible pair of x and y values.

please try to understand and have a great day!

Please! Solve f(x)-g(x) if f(x)=1/2x^4 - x^2 and g(x)= 3/4x^4 +3x^3 - x^2
igomit [66]

Answer:

f(x)-g(x)=\frac{-1}{4}x^{4}-3x^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a subtraction between polynomials, since both functions are polynomials, hence, to solve the problem with need to perform the subtraction, by coefficients.

f(x)= \frac{1}{2}x^{4}+0x^{3}-x^{2}\\\\g(x)=\frac{3}{4}x^{4}+3x^{3}-x^{2}

By performing the subtraction, we have:

f(x)-g(x)=\frac{-1}{4}x^{4}-3x^{3}

A waffle cone has a height of 7 inches and a diameter of 3 inches. What is the volume of ice cream that can be contained within
Nata [24]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find the volume of a cone, we multiply the base by the height and then divide by three.

First, we find the area of the base, which is a circle. To find a circle, you square the radius and then multiply by pi (or 3.14 in our case).

Radius is half of the diameter.

3/2=1.5

We square this.

1.5²=2.25

We multiply by 3.14

2.25×3.14=7.065

Now, we multiply this base area by the height.

7.065×7=49.455

We divide by 3.

49.455/3=16.485

Therefore, if we round this, our answer is 16.49 in³.

Now you can find the volume of a cone! Have a wonderful day! :D
