Y=1/x is a reciprocal function & its shape is a special hyperbola with one branch located in the 1st Quadrant and the second in the 3dr Quadrant and both are symmetric about the origin O.
If a> 1 → y=a/x  and the 2 branches are equally stretched upward & downward
about the center O.
If  0 < a < 1→y =a/x, the 2 branches are equally stretched downward and upward about the center O.
If a<0, then the 2 legs are in the 2nd and 4th Quadrant respectively

The distance a spring will stretch varies directly with how much weight is attached to the spring. If a spring stretches 6 inche
Iteru [2.4K]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

C.4.1 in

Explanation:

We will use a proportion for this problem.

In the first ratio, we have 6 inches: 80 pounds.  This can also be written as 6/80.

For the second ratio, we do not know the length; this is x.  The weight is 55; this gives us x/55.

This makes our proportion

6/80 = x/55

Cross multiplying, we have

6(55) = 80(x)

330 = 80x

Divide both sides by 80:

330/80 = 80x/80

4.125 = x

This means the answer is 4.1.

Sonja [21]

Answer: The new boxes are 14 ft3 larger.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the volume of each box and compare them.

Volume of a rectangular prism = base x height x length

Replacing with the values given:

Old boxes volume: 4 x 2 x 2 =16 cubic feet

New boxes' volume: 3 x 5 x 2 = 30 cubic feet

Subtraction the old boxes volume to the new boxes volume:

30 ft3- 16 ft3 = 14 ft3

The new boxes are 14 ft3 larger.
