The value of x when y =4 is 2

<h3>How to solve for x?</h3>

An inverse proportion is represented as:

k = yx

Where

k represents the constant of proportion

When y = 2, x = 4.

So, we have:

k =2 * 4

k = 8

Substitute k = 8 in k = yx

So, we have:

yx = 8

When y = 4, we have:

4x = 8

Divide by 4

x = 2

Hence, the value of x when y =4 is 2

Find the lateral area of the cone in terms of π.

Andreyy89

Answer:

$15\pi\ cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The lateral area of the cone is equal to

$LA=\pi rl$

where

r is the radius of the base

l is the slant height

we have

$r=3\ cm$

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem find the slant height

$l^{2}=3^{2} +4^{2}\\ \\l^{2}=25\\ \\l=5\ cm$

substitute in the formula

$LA=\pi (3)(5)=15\pi\ cm^{2}$

Find the exact circumference of a circle with the given radius. 5 inches C = 2.5π in. 10π in. 25π in.

docker41 [41]

The circumference, C, of a given circle may be calculated through the equation,

C = 2πr

where r is the radius.

Substituting the known values from the given in this item,
C = 2(π)(5 in)
<em>C = 10π in</em>

Thus, the answer is this item is the second choice.
