y = (20 - 2x) / -4. Step-by-step explanation: To determine y as a number, two equations are necessary. Here, you need to rearrange the equation by moving 2x to the opposite side, resulting in -4y = 20 - 2x. By dividing both sides by -4, you get y = (20 - 2x) / -4.

y = (20 - 2x) / -4. Step-by-step explanation: Starting with 2x - 4y = 20, we look to solve for y. Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation: 2x - 2x - 4y = 20 - 2x yielding -4y = 20 - 2x. Dividing both sides by -4 gives us y = (20 - 2x) / -4.

At the local dairy farm, Kareem buys a 32-oz container of yogurt for $2.56. Jonah buys a 6-oz container of yogurt for $0.48. Are
Zina [12379]

Answer:

Yes, the cost y in dollars and the quantity of yogurt x are indeed proportional.

The relationship can be expressed as: y=0.08x


Step-by-step explanation:

1. If y varies directly with x, it can be represented as:

y=kx

Here, k represents the constant of proportionality.

2. We'll calculate the proportionality constant. Given that y=2.56 and x=32, we have:

y=kx\\k=\frac{y}{x}\\k=\frac{2.56}{32}\\k=0.08

3. Thus, the equation becomes:

y=0.08x

4. Now, we need to verify proportionality. Substituting x=6, which is the quantity of yogurt purchased by Jonah, we should arrive at $0.48:

y=0.08(6)\\y=0.48

5. They are indeed directly proportional.

A chemist recorded the change in temperature of a cooling liquid as −25.5°F over a 1.5 minute period. The temperature fell at a
Leona [12618]
The temperature change rate is determined by taking the temperature difference in °F and dividing it by the time measured in minutes. Thus,
rate of change in temperature = -25.5°F / 1.5 min
= -17°F / min
Therefore, the temperature decreases at a rate of -17°F every minute.
