Mathematics

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 Bobcats had a win-loss record of 41-23 before their star player, Melissa, got injured. Melissa didn’t play in any more games
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The win percentage decreased by 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to fin the total games played right before Melissa got Injured

41+23=64

Then you need to find the win percentage by making a fraction of wins over total games

wins/total games = 41/64 = 64%

Then you need to find the number of games played after Melissa got injured

54-41 = 13 wins

34-23 = 11 losses

13+11 = 24 total games played without Melissa

You find that win percentage similarly to the first time

wins/total games = 13/24 = 54%

Then you find the difference in the percentages and there you have it!!

64% - 54% = 10%

It decreased as well therefore the answer is...

It decreased by 10%
