To check if a relation is a function, given a mapping diagram of the relation, use the following criterion: If each input has only one line connected to it, then the outputs are a function of the inputs.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a joint variation problem:
z varies directly as x and y
Interpreting this;
z ∝ xy
Therefore;
z = kxy
z = 6, x = 2, y = 6
Now find k,
6 = 2 x 6 x k
6 = 12k
k =
To find the value of z;
x = 3, y = 8
z = x 3 x 8 = 12
X - 4 +6 -x
x - x = -2
0 = -2
No solution
Let's say the second piece is x ft long
The first piece is 2x ft long
The third piece is x+4 ft long
All of the pieces should add up to 10ft
x+2x+x+4=10
4x= 6
x=1.5ft
The first piece is 2x ft long=3 ft long
