If x and y vary inversely and x = -3 when y = 12, what is the constant of variation?

Answers

Answer 1

k=-36

Step-by-step explanation:

x inversely proportional to y

x=1k/y

where k = constant

x= -3, y= 12, k = ?

-3=k/12

k = -3 × 12

k = -36

A handful of coins has the value of 1 dollar and 79 cents. There are three times as many dimes as quarters, and five more pennies than dimes. If there are only three types of coins, how many coins of each type are there?

Answers

Answer: There are 3 quarters , 9 dimes and 14 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Number of quarters

Then, Number of dimes = 3x

Number of pennies = 3x+5

1 quarter = $ 0.25

1 dime = $0.10

1 penny = $ 0.01

So, Total amount = 0.25x+ 0.10(3x) + 0.01(3x+5)

= 0.25x+0.30x+ 0.03x+0.05

= 0.58x+0.05

Since Total amount = 1 dollar and 79 cents = $ 1.79  [1 cent = $ 0.01]

So,

[tex]0.58x+0.05=1.79\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.58x= 1.74\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1.74}{0.58}\\\\\Rightarrow x=3[/tex]

Thus, there are 3 quarters , 9 dimes , 14 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 3 quarters , 9 dimes , 14 pennies.

Answers

Answer: c

Step-by-step explanation:

look at the equation and insert the value of X from the table into the equation and figure out which one will give you the same sum for the values. for example f(x) = 3(-2)-1

this answer gives you f(x)= -6 -1 which will give u a sum of -7

another one : f(x)= 3(0)-1

3 multiplied by 0 gives you 0 therefore you are left with -1

by doing this you prove that this equation works with ur x values and gives you the same sum you have for f(x)

Find the missing side length, N. ​

Answers

Answer : 15

We know these triangles are congruent. To find the missing side, you first have to find out what the scale factor is. To do this you can just divide side QS by side AC, which would give you 2.5.
You would then multiply this scale factor by side BC, giving you side N, which is 15.

We know these triangles are congruent with the missing side, N would be equal to 15.

What is the congruent triangle?

Two triangles are said to be congruent if the length of the sides is equal, a measure of the angles are equal and they can be superimposed.

We know these triangles are congruent.

To find the missing side, N

ΔABC ≅ΔQRS

AC/QS = BC/RS

2/5 = 6/n

n = 6 x 5/2

n = 30/2

n = 15

Thus, the value of N is 15.

Billy bought 2 sweatshirts and 3 t-shirts. His friend Jordan bout 3 sweatshirts and 3 t-shirts. Billy's bill was $35 and Jordan's bill was $45. What is the price of one t-shirt and what is the price of one sweatshirt?

Answers

Alright, denote sweatshirts by x and tshirts by y:
for billy: 2x+3y=35$
for jordan:3x+3y=45$
We need to get rid of one of the unknowns inorder to solve, therefore we will subtract the two equations from each other. This will get rid of the y variable(3y-3y=0)
2x+3y=35$
-
3x+3y=45$
=
-1x=-10$
we get rid of the negative, which leaves us with x=10$. Knowing this info, we can now easily calculate y:
2x+3y=35$
2(10)+3y=35$
20+3y=35$
3y=15
y=15/3
y=5

So first you have to find what is GCF of 42 and 18, which is 6 so divide 42 and 18 by 6 and you get 7/3 which is your simplified fraction but you can make this into a mixed number which would be 2 and 1/3

Pls help??????????????

Answers

Answer:

perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

L1: find the slope

rise: 2 - (-5) = 7

run: -1 - (-3) = 2

m1 = 7/2

L2:

rise: 2 - 4 = -2

run: 7 - 0 = 7

m2 = -2/7

parallel means same slope m1 = m2

perpendicular means opposite reciprocal (flip and change signs)

7/2 flip and change signs = -2/7, yes thus it is perpendicular

At a local fair, Molly sells bracelets. It costs her
$10 per bracelet for supplies and the local marke
charges her a one-time booth fee of $60. She
charges $20 for each bracelet.
a) Write a system of equations to represent this
situation (one equation for expenses and one
equation for income):

Answers

Answer:

10x + 60 ; 20x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Purchase price per bracelet = $10

Cost of booth = $60

Selling price per bracelet = $20

Hence,

Let number of bracelets = x

Expense equation :

(Price per bracelet * number of bracelet) + booth fee

(10 * x) + 60

10x + 60

Income equation :

Selling price * number of bracelets

20x

what is the distance between (-1, 2) and (3, 5)

Answers

Answer

the slope is 3/4 or .75

Answer:

The distance is 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Key Skills needed for this problem: Distance Formula, Coordinate Plane Understanding, Radicals, Subtraction, Exponents, Addition

1) We are given 2 points --> (-1,2) and (3,5)

2) To find out the distance between both, we use distance formula.

This is: Given 2 points [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex], the distance between the 2 points would be: [tex]\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^{2} + (y_2 - y_1)^{2}}[/tex].

3) For the points (-1,2) and (3,5):

-1 is x12 is y13 is x25 is y2

4) Therefore it would be --> [tex]\sqrt{(-1 - 3)^{2} + (5-2)^{2}}[/tex]

5) This simplified would be [tex]\sqrt{(-4)^{2} + 3^{2}}[/tex]

6) This further simplified would be: [tex]\sqrt{16 + 9}[/tex]

7) This even more simplified would be [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] which is 5.

Therefore, the distance between the 2 points is 5 units.
