Sonbull [250]3 years ago

Answer:

The answer is y = 6/x ⇒ answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise what is the meaning of the inverse variation

- It is a mathematical relationship between two variables

- It can be expressed by an equation in which the product of two

 variables is equal to a constant

- If y is in inverse variation with x

∴ y ∝ 1/x

- Change this relation to equation

∴ y = k/x, where k is the constant of the variation

- We can write it by another way

∵ y ∝ 1/x

∴ y = k/x ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ yx = k

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ There is an inverse variation between the two variables x and y

∴ y ∝ 1/x

∴ y = k/x

- Look to the answer

# We will chose A because

∵ y = 6/x  ⇒ use the cross multiplication

∴ yx = 6 ⇒ and 6 is a constant

∴ k = 6

* The answer is y = 6/x

What is the equation of the coordinate A and B if they are (4,7), (6,3) respectively. What is the equation of the straight line.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: y+2x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Two points A and B are (4,7) and (6,3) respectively

Using two-point form

\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Putting values

\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-7}{x-4}=\dfrac{3-7}{6-4}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-7}{x-4}=\dfrac{-4}{2}=-2\\\\\Rightarrow y-7=-2x+8\\\\\Rightarrow y+2x=15
