OpenStudy (pratyush5):

what do you need help with ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Identify which table shows a direct variation. Table 1 x y 2 2 6 12 9 18 Table 2 x y 2 14 6 42 9 63 A. Table 1 B. Table 2 C. Table 1 and Table 2 D. Neither table

OpenStudy (anonymous):

PLEAE HELP ME!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get that??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

direct variation : \(\large y = kx\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Look at the second table : Table 2 x y 2 14 6 42 9 63

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

see any relation between numbers in "second column" numbers and "first column" ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

why our replies are dancing back and forth... :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do Y adn K and X stand for?? I have know idea what Direct Variatino is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

PLEASE!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would love to know what direct variation is and how to figure it out??? Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please help me!!!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Table 2 x y 2 14 6 42 9 63 for example, y = kx : 14 = 2*7 42 = 6*7 63 = 9*7

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

any \(y\) value can be obtained by multiplying the corresponding value by \(7\) so, this relation is of form : \(\large y = 7x\) its a direct variation.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

For table 1, you cannot write like that. so table 1 is NOT a direct variation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok cool! So can you explain it to me again? What exactly is Direct VAriation?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

that short video... does a better job, go thru it quick :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the value of y when x = 20? Equation y = 5.2x. Over top of a table with column 1 heading x and values 0, 1, 10, 20 and column 2 heading y and no values showing. A. 10.4 B. 25.2 C. 100.4 D. 104

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am thinking that i have no clue well what about i dont knonow

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you're given the equation : \(\large y = 5.2x\) plugin \(x = 20\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large y = 5.2 * 20 = ?\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so 104

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yup !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The equation y = 11x shows that a boat travels at a speed of 11 km/h. Which ordered pair satisfies the equation y = 11x? A. (0, 11) B. (1, 12) C. (2, 22) D. (11, 1) Thanks!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so if 11 equils Y then i woudl just do 11 times the number that we think of

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

kindof yes, u need to test each option

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large y = 11x\) lets test first option : A. (0, 11) plugin x = 0, do u get 11 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok then i guesss yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because no wait 0*11=0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large y = 11x\) plugin x = 0 \(\large y = 11*0 = 0\) so NOPE, this is not equal to 11, so its not a solution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D because 1*11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YEAH I FEEL SMART!!!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats a very good try, but no :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

D is not the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

D. (11, 1) x y plugin x = 11, do u get 1 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do the comas mean like * or /??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

y = 11x = 11*11 = 121 so, D is not the answer.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

(x, y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

its called an ordered pair, first number is x, second number is y

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try option C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so what about how did you get that?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

C. (2, 22) y = 11x plugin x = 2, wat do u get ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i got 22

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nice thanks!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes ! which is same as the y value in (2, 22) so option C satisfies the given equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will post another question!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the discount. regular price = $100; discount rate = 35% A. $350 B. $35 C. $3.50 D. $65

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you get the discount rate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Correct ! 35% of 100 = 0.35*100 = 35

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the discount. regular price = $168; discount rate = 30% A. $117.60 B. $162.96 C. $50.40 D. $5.04

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what we would do woudl be 0.30 Times 168?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

You got it !!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large 30\% = \dfrac{30}{100} = 0.3\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YEAH!!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

to calculate the discount amount, simply multiply 0.3 by the regular price

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The regular price of an item is $35. The item is on sale with a discount of $10. What is the discount rate? A. 0.286% B. 28.6% C. 35% D. 286%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know how to do it opposite??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

divide both, then multiply by 100 : \(\large \dfrac{10}{35}\times 100\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so B

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

B is right !!! I gotta go.... brb in 1 hour... cya :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok cool! Thank you!
