Assume that y varies inversely with x. If y=7 when x=2/3, find y when x=7/3

Answer:

When x= 7/3, y = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

When two variables are inversely related, it means that if one variable increases, the other one decreases. This relationship can be expressed as:

y = k/x, where "x" and "y" are variables and "k" the proportionality constant.

As the problem states, if y= 7 then x = 2/3. Now we can find the value of the constant "k"

7 = k/(2/3) ⇒ 7 x (2/3) = k ⇒ 14/3 = k.

So the equation for "x" and "y" ⇒ y = 14/3x

Finally you have to replace x = 7/3

⇒ y = 14/[3 x (7/3)] ⇒ y = 2.

Summarizing, when x = 7/3, y = 2.

Y=k/x
7=k/(2/3)
7=k(3/2)
times both sides by 2/3
14/3=k

y=(14/3)/x
y=(14/3)/(7/3)
y=(14/3)(3/7)
y=2

Rex weighed 80 pounds a year ago. Now he weighs 92 pounds. What is the percent increase in his weight?
bezimeni [28]
So base on the question, that states the weight of Rex from last year to the present, and find its rate if change or percentage of change. To calculate the percentage you must first subtract the said weight in the present to its past then divide it by its past weight then multiply it by 100. So the percentage would be 15 %. I hope this would help

What is the length of x in the diagram below?
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

That is a 45-45-90 triangle next to a 30-60-90 triangle.  

So, the height of the left triangle equals 5.

That makes the short side of the 30-60-90 triangle also equal to 5.

In a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse (or "x") is exactly twice the length of the shortest side.

Therefore, the hypotenuse (or "x") equals 10.
