When given an inverse variation, how do you find k?

Mathematics
1 answer:
atroni [7]2 years ago
8 0

Considering an inverse proportional relationship, you find k taking a point (x,y), and multiplying the values of x and y.

<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

For an inverse relationship, the function is:

y = \frac{k}{x}.

Then:

k = xy.

Which means that to find k, you take a point (x,y), and multiply the values of x and y.

The amount of money Chaz earned for walking dogs is given in the table. Can the relationship be described by a constant rate? Ex
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Yes, the relationship can be described by a constant rate of $18.75 per dog

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Let

x ----> the number of dogs

y ---> the amount of money earned

we have the points

(6,112,50), (8,150), (11,206.25)

step 1

Find the slope with the first and second point

(6,112,50), (8,150)

m=(150-112.50)/(8-6)=18.75

step 2

Find the slope with the first and third point

(6,112,50), (11,206.25)

m=(206.25-112.50)/(11-6)=18.75

Compare the slopes

The slopes are the same

That means, that the three points lies on the same line

therefore

Yes, the relationship can be described by a constant rate of $18.75 per dog

If a toaster oven that is connected to a 120 v plug has 16 A of current running through it, what is the resistance?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The resistance is 7.5 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

V = IR

V = voltage  I is the current and R = resistance

120 = 16*R

Divide by 16 on both sides

120/16 = 16R/16

7.5 = R

The resistance is 7.5 ohms
