2. If y varies inversely as x and y = 3 when x = 5, find x when y = 2.5

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the law of variation,

y <> 1/x, where <> is the constant of proportionality. Therefore

y = k/x where k is a constant

3 = k/5 and k = 15

To find x when y = 2.5(5/2)

Go back to the second equation

y = k/x

5/2 = 15/x

When you cross multiply

5x = 30.

Divide through by 5,

x = 6.

Which statement best illustrates using the vertical line test to determine if the graph below is a function of x ?
kirill115 [55]

If something is a function, every x-value, only has one (1) y-value. If the line x = 0 intersects the graph in two points, there are to values for y (instead of one). Therefore the graph is not a function of x.


Your answer is A.
