Write an equation of variation for y = 30 when x = 5, where y varies inversly as x.
Correct Answer
30 = k/5
30=k/5Explanation
The equation 30 = k/5 represents the variation of y with respect to x when y varies inversely as x. In this equation, k represents the constant of variation. By multiplying both sides of the equation by 5, we can solve for k and find that k = 150. Therefore, the equation of variation for y = 30 when x = 5 is 30 = 150/5, or simply 30 = k/5.Rate this question:

Solve the following equation using the quadratic formula: x2= - 3x+10 (Remember to set the equation equal to 0.) If there are two solutions type your answer as follows: x=?, x=? (Type a comma between the two answers)
Correct Answer
x=-5, x=2
x=2, x=-5
x = -5, x = 2
x = 2, x = -5Explanation
The correct answer is x = -5, x = 2. This is because when we solve the equation x^2 = -3x + 10 by setting it equal to 0, we can rearrange it to x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0. Using the quadratic formula, we have x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / (2a), where a = 1, b = 3, and c = -10. Plugging in these values, we get x = (-3 ± √(3^2 - 4(1)(-10))) / (2(1)). Simplifying further, we have x = (-3 ± √(9 + 40)) / 2, which becomes x = (-3 ± √49) / 2. Finally, we have x = (-3 ± 7) / 2, giving us the solutions x = -5 and x = 2.Rate this question:

Correct Answer(s)
B. Identity property of multiplication
C. Distributive Property
D. Commutative property of additionExplanation
The first expression, (-1 * 7) + 2 = 2 + (-1 * 7), demonstrates the commutative property of addition. This property states that changing the order of the numbers being added does not change the result.
The second expression, 9 * 1 = 9, illustrates the identity property of multiplication. According to this property, any number multiplied by 1 will result in the same number.
The third expression, 4 (2 + 6) = (4 * 2) + (4 * 6), represents the distributive property. This property states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two other numbers, it is the same as multiplying the number by each of the two numbers separately and then adding the results together.Rate this question:

Find the distance between the two points: (-5, 8) and (0, -4). d= ?
Correct Answer
d=13
13Explanation
The distance between two points can be found using the distance formula, which states that the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the differences between their x-coordinates and y-coordinates. In this case, the x-coordinates are -5 and 0, and the y-coordinates are 8 and -4. Plugging these values into the distance formula, we get: d = √((-5-0)^2 + (8-(-4))^2) = √(25 + 144) = √169 = 13. Therefore, the distance between the two points is 13.Rate this question:

k*6=1
6k=1Explanation
The equation relating x and y when x = 6 and y = 1 is 1 = 6k. This equation represents the direct variation between x and y, where k is the constant of variation. Since y varies directly as x, we can write the equation as y = kx. Substituting the given values, we get 1 = 6k. This means that the constant of variation, k, is equal to 1/6. Therefore, the equation relating x and y is y = (1/6)x.Rate this question:
