Loosely, "varies inversely" means that as one quantity increases, the other decreases. Specifically, if x and y vary inversely, then y = k/x where k is some constant (a particular number).
Another way to write that relationship is xy = k. To find the value of k for this problem, you need a numbers for x and y that go together.
Suppose x = number of children and y = number of candies (it doesn't matter what order these go in as long as you keep track!).
"When 12 children are present, 140 pieces of candy are consumed." So when x = 12, the value of y = 140.
xy = k
(12)(140) = k
1680 = k
Now, when x = 8 children,
8y = 1680
y = 210
Answer:
O 16,30,34
Step-by-step explanation:
To confirm, use Pythagorean theorem to check.
(16)² + (30)² = (34)²
256 + 900 = 1156
=> It is correct
=> Therefore, this set of three lengths will form a right triangle
Answer: do you mean, “if you have the y-int, what else do you need to write an equation?”
If that’s what you mean then you need the slope

Answer:
A formal sanction is a reward or punishment given by a formal organization or regulatory agency, such as a school or government. An informal sanction is a spontaneous expression of approval or disapproval given by an individual or a group, such as a standing ovation or gossip.
