Answer: y = 12/(x^2)</h3>
============================================================
Explanation:
"y varies inversely as x^2" means y = k/(x^2) for some constant k.
Plug in (x,y) = (2,3) and solve for k
y = k/(x^2)
3 = k/(2^2)
3 = k/4
3*4 = k
12 = k
k = 12
The original equation updates to y = 12/(x^2)
As a check, plugging in x = 2 should lead to y = 3
y = 12/(x^2)
y = 12/(2^2)
y = 12/4
y = 3 ... we get the proper y value, so the answer is confirmed.
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the number of stickers Sophia has. Then the number Ethan has is (2/3)s. The transfer of 16 stickers can be described by the equation ...
(s -16)/(2/3s +16) = 1/2 . . . . . sophia/ethan = 1/2 after the transfer
2s -32 = 2/3s +16 . . . . . . . . .cross multiply
4/3s = 48 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 32-2/3s
s = (48)(3/4) = 36 . . . . . . . . .multiply by 3/4
Together, the total number of stickers held is s +(2/3)s = (5/3)s.
5/3s = (5/3)(36) = 60 . . . . . total of Sophia's and Ethan's stickers
Together, Sophia and Ethan have 60 stickers.
My guess would be the second choice - 90 degrees , I tried my best because idk if there’s a picture to this or anything :)
7g - 6 = -20
Add 6 to both sides
7g = -14
Divide both sides by 7
g = -2
answer: g = -2
