If y varies directly as x, and y is 16 when x is 4, when y= 24 what is the value of x?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

x = 6 possibly

Step-by-step explanation:

I am just an algebra student, but if I am correct I would appreciate a crown.

16/4 is 4, so i assumed that was the geometric pattern, so i divided 24 by 4 and got 6.

Hoped this helped.

A company manufacturing company small solid plastic cubes .They use the expression s3 to find the volume of plastic needed to make a cube .Luis claims that the volume of plastic needed to make a cube with the side length of 8 millimeters is 24 cubic millimeters do u agree with Luis's claim explain your reasoning

Answers

Yes, Luis is correct.
If s is equal to the the side length, then in the problem, s is equal to 8 millimeters. 8 x 3 is equal to 24, which would equate to 24 cubic millimeters.

The bug ran from 24 to 78. What distance did it cover? If this run took the bug 9 seconds, what was its average speed?

Answers

Answer: SO first subtract 78-24=54. So the distance is 34. now you divide distance/time which will be 54/9 and that equals 6. the  average speed is six and the distance it covered  is 54

A golfer hits a ball from a starting elevation of 5 feet with a velocity of 70 feet per seconddown to a green with an elevation of -4 feet. The number of seconds t it takes the ball to
hit the green can be represented by the equation - 16t2 + 706 + 5 = -4. How long does it
take the ball to land on the green?
It takes the ball |
seconds to land on the green.

Answers

Answer:

Time, t = 4.5 s

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of seconds t it takes the ball to  hit the green can be represented by the equation :

-16t^2 + 70t + 5 = -4

It means that the initial velocity is 70 ft/s. The above equation becomes:

-16t^2 + 70t + 9=0

It is required to find the time taken by the ball to land on the ground. It is a quadratic equation. The solution of quadratic equation is given by :

t=(-b\pm √(b^2-4ac) )/(2a)\n\nt=(-b+ √(b^2-4ac) )/(2a),(-b- √(b^2-4ac) )/(2a)\n\nt=(-70+ √((70)^2-4* (-16)(9)) )/(2(-16)), \frac{-70-\sqrt{(70)^(2)-4*(-16)(9)}}{2(-16)}

t = −0.125 and t = 4.5 s

Time cannot be negative. So, the time taken by the ball to land on the ground is 4.5 seconds.
