What is the relation between the variables in the equation x= -3/y? a. y varies directly as x c. y varies jointly as x b. y varies inversely as x d. none of the above

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(b)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is inverse variation.  As y increases (but not allowed to be zero), x decreases.  Thus, (b) is correct:  y varies inversely with x.

Answer 2

The relation between the variables in the equation x= -3/y. Thus, (b) is correct, y varies inversely with x.

What is directly proportional and inversely proportional relationship?

Let there are two variables p and q,

Then, p and q are said to be directly proportional to each other if

p = kq

where k is some constant number called constant of proportionality.

This directly proportional relationship between p and q is written as

[tex]p \propto q[/tex]  

where, that middle sign is the sign of proportionality.

In a directly proportional relationship, increasing one variable will increase another.

Now let m and n are two variables.

Then, m and n are said to be inversely proportional to each other if

[tex]m = \dfrac{c}{n} \\\\ \text{or} \\\\ n = \dfrac{c}{m}[/tex]

where c is a constant number called constant of proportionality.

This inversely proportional relationship is denoted by;

[tex]m \propto \dfrac{1}{n} \\\\ \text{or} \\\\n \propto \dfrac{1}{m}[/tex]

As , increasing one variable will decrease the other variable if both are inversely proportional.

Here the relation between the variables in the equation x= -3/y;

This is inverse variation, As y increases (but not allowed to be zero), x decreases.

Thus, (b) is correct, y varies inversely with x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Which statement is true about the graphs of the two lines y = -4/5x + 2 and y = -5/4x - 1/2?

Statements:
1. The lines are perpendicular to each other because -4/5 and -5/4 are opposite reciprocals of each other.
2. The lines are perpendicular to each other because 2 and -1/2 are opposite reciprocals of each other.
3. The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other because -4/5 and -5/4 are not opposite reciprocals of each other.
4. The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other because 2 and -1/2 are not opposite reciprocals of each other.

Answers

Answer:

3. The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other because -4/5 and -5/4 are not opposite reciprocals of each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Our answer is

3. The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other because -4/5 and -5/4 are not opposite reciprocals of each other.

Because [tex]-\frac{5}{4}[/tex] and [tex]-\frac{4}{5}[/tex] are not opposite reciprocals because they share the same sign ( - ).

Statement 3 is true. The lines y = -4/5x + 2 and y = -5/4x - 1/2 are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other because the slopes -4/5 and -5/4 are not opposite reciprocals of each other.

To determine if two lines are perpendicular, we need to compare their slopes. If the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other, the lines are perpendicular.

Let's analyze the slopes of the given lines:

Line 1: y = -4/5x + 2

The slope of Line 1 is -4/5.

Line 2: y = -5/4x - 1/2

The slope of Line 2 is -5/4.

To check if these slopes are negative reciprocals, we need to invert one of the slopes and change its sign. Let's invert the slope of Line 1:

Inverted slope of Line 1: -5/4

The inverted slope of Line 1 is not equal to the slope of Line 2 (-5/4 ≠ -5/4). Therefore, the slopes are not negative reciprocals of each other.

Hence, Statement 3 is true. The lines y = -4/5x + 2 and y = -5/4x - 1/2 are neither parallel nor perpendicular to each other because the slopes -4/5 and -5/4 are not opposite reciprocals of each other.

Compare and contrast the Angle Angle Similanty Postulate, the Side Side Side Similarity Theorem and the Side Angle
Side Similanty Theorem
Write about the similantes and the differences that you observe.?

Answers

Answer:

The similarities are

1) Two triangles are similar when they meet either the (Angle Angle) AA, (Side Side Side) SSS or (Side Angle Side) SAS criteria

2) When two triangles meet either of the above similarity criteria they automatically meet the other similarity criteria

3) The ratio of their equivalent sides are equal such that when ΔABC is similar to ΔDCE we have;

AB/DC = AC/DE = BC/CE

The observed differences are

1) Triangles that meet the SAS and SSS Similarity Theorem criteria can be said to be congruent, that is they have both the same side sizes and angle sizes while triangles that meet only the AA Similarity Postulate criteria may or may not be congruent

2) The number of possible triangles formed by the SAS or SSS Similarity Theorem criteria is only one while the number of possible triangles formed by the AA Similarity Postulate criteria is infinite

3) A triangle that meets either the SAS or SSS Similarity Theorem criteria also meets the AA Similarity Postulate criteria

4) A triangle that meets either the AA Similarity Postulate criteria does not necessarily meet the AA Similarity Postulate criteria.

The similarity postulates are;

The Angle Angle Similarity Postulate also known as AA

The Side Side Side Similarity Theorem also known as SSS

Your answer of [tex]-\frac{39}{8y}[/tex] is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin with the expression: [tex]-\frac{4}{y} +(-\frac{7}{8y} )[/tex]

First, we need to find a common denominator, which in this case would be 8y.

To make the first term have a denominator of 8y, we must multiply it by [tex]\frac{8}{8}[/tex]

[tex]-\frac{4}{y}(\frac{8}{8}) +(-\frac{7}{8y} )\\\\-\frac{32}{8y} +(-\frac{7}{8y} )[/tex]

Well they made 19 clay, where 12 were vases. That means 7 were not vases. She randomly chooses 16 clay objects, which then also means 3 were left behind. so if the vases are  12/19, which is approximately 63%, then 63% of the objects are vases. Makes sense, right? Well now we need to multiply that by the initial 11 in the question. After all of this work..
