Answer:
The answer would be X=24
Step-by-step explanation:
Y is multiplied by 3 to get the answer 30. Because they are varied directly you have to multiply the 8 by 3 to get your answer!

1/3x + y = 4....subtract 1/3x from both sides
y = -1/3x + 4 <===
4 + -1 1/3
Turn 4 into an improper fraction.
4/4 is equal to 12/3. We want both 4 and 1 1/3 to have the same denominator so that they could be subtracted from each other.
New question :
12/3 + - 1 1/3
Turn {-1 1/3} into an improper fraction.
(3 × 1) + 1 = 4/3
So, -1 1/3 = -4/3
Our new question :
12/3 + - 4/3
Simplify.
12/3 - 4/3 = 8/3
Turn into a mixed number.
2 2/3

Let the number be n.
Then:
n^2 + (1/n)^2 = 82/9; find n. Find the LCD; it is 9n^2.
Mult all 3 terms by 9n^2:
82*9n^2
9n^4 + 9 = (82/9)(9n^2) => 9n^4 + 9 = ------------
9
Then 9n^4 - 82n^2 + 9 = 0
I used my graphing calculator to find that n = 3.
Let's check: is 3^2 + (1/3)^2 = 82/9?
Is 9 + 1/9 = 82/9?
Is 81 + 1 = 82? YES. So, n=3 is a solution.
