Answer:

$430

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weekly income be x

Money spent on food= $86

% of weekly income spent on food = 20

20% of weekly income in terms = 20/100 * x = x/5

This, income is equal to $86 as given

thus,

x/5 = 86

x = 86*5 = 430

Thus, weekly income is $430.

Suppose y varies directly with x. If y = –4 when x = 8, what is the equation of direct variation? Complete the steps to write th
Sauron [17]

Answer:

y = -1/2 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow the directions "Complete the steps to write the equation of direct variation. Start with the equation of direct variation y = kx. Substitute in the given values for x and y to get . Solve for k to get . Write the direct variation equation with the value found for k."

y = kx substitute y = -4 and x = 8.

-4 = k*8

-4/8 = k

-1/2 = k

So the equation is y = -1/2(x).

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula mc023-1.jpg, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height. Suppose
Simora [160]
Volume of a cylinder = π r² h

Given:
radius = (x+8)
height (2x + 3)

Volume of a cylinder = π * (x+8)² * (2x + 3)

V = π * (x+8)(x+8) * (2x+3)
V = π * (x² + 8x + 8x + 64) * (2x + 3)
V = π * (x² + 16x + 64) * (2x + 3)
V = π * (2x³ + 32x² + 128x + 3x² + 48x + 192)
V = π * (2x³ + 32x² + 3x² + 128x + 48x + 192)
V = π * (2x³ + 35x² + 176x + 192)
