Answer:

y =7x , follows the direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation states that a relationship between two variables in which one is a constant multiple of the other. In other words, when one variable changes the other changes in proportion to the first.

If y is directly proportional to x i.e, $y \propto x$ or

y = kx .....[1] where k is the constant variation

Given : y = 7x

On comparing this with equation [1] we get;

k(constant of variation) = 7

therefore,

it follows the direct variation as $y \propto x$ or

y = 7x where k =7 is the constant of variation.

Therefore, y =7x follows the direct variation.

If ce = 7x+4, find the value of x

Alex787 [66]

Hey there,

To find the value of x we can take the two, CD or DE and set them equal to CE.

First step is set the lines equal to each other:

x + 3 + 8x - 9 = 7x + 4

Now we combine like terms:

9x - 6 = 7x + 4

Then we subtract 7x from both sides:

2x - 6 = 4

Add 6 to both sides:

2x = 10

Lastly we divide both sides by 2:

x = 5

So the value of x would have to be 5.

Hope I helped,

Hank invested a total of $20,000, part at 7% and part at 10%. How much did he invest at each rate if the total interest earned i

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The amount invested at 7% is $12,000 while the amount invested at 10% is $8,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The total amount Hank invested = $20,000

The interest earned in one year = $1640

Hank invested part of the $20,000 at 7% interest and part of the $20,000 at 10%

Let the part invested at 7% = X and the part invested at 10% = Y, we have;

7% of X + 10% of Y = $1640 which gives;

0.07×X + 0.1×Y = $1640.....................(1)

X + Y = $20,000.................................(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 10 and subtract equation (1) from equation (2) to get;

X + Y - 10×(0.07×X + 0.1×Y) = $20,000 - 10×$1640

X - 0.7·X - Y - Y = $20,000 - $16,400 = $3,600

0.3·X = $3,600

X = $3,600/0.3 = $12,000

X = $12,000

Y = $20,000 - X = $20,000 - $12,000 = $8,000

Y = $8,000

Therefore, the amount invested at 7% = $12,000 and the amount invested at 10% = $8,000.

The smallest number by which 28 should be multiplied so as to get a perfect square is

dsp73

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

28 = 2^2 * 7.

To multiply 28 to get a perfect square, we can multiply it by 7 to get 2^2 * 7^2, which is 14 squared.

∆ABC and ∆DEF satisfy the AAA correspondence. ∆ABC and ∆DEF_____________. _______is not a criterion for congruency of any two tr

vovikov84 [41]

Triangles ABC and DEF may or may not be congruent, because the angle-angle-angle (AAA) postulate is not a criterion for congruency of any two triangles. This is because the angle-angle-angle postulate only incorporates the angles of the triangles, and the side lengths are not specified, so congruency may or may not be true for these triangles.
