If y varies inversely as X and Y equals 5 when x equals 3 find X when Y is 15​

Mathematics
1 answer:
omeli [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 5 when x = 3

k = yx = 5 × 3 = 15, thus

y = \frac{15}{x} ← equation of variation

When y = 15 then

15 = \frac{15}{x} ( multiply both sides by x )

15x = 15 ( divide both sides by 15 )

x = 1

The sum of two numbers is 6, their difference is 4, find the two numbers. What is their product?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The two numbers are 5 and 1. Their product is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 6 (*)

x - y = 4 (**)

Let (*) + (**)

--> (x+y) + (x-y) = 6 + 4

<=> 2x = 10 <=> x = 5

Substitute x= 5

(*) <=> 5 + y = 6

<=> y=1

Answer: (x,y) = (5,1)

Their product: x.y = 5x1 = 5
