If x is inversely proportional to y, then:

x=k/y.

When y=2, x=3.

3=k/2, therefore k=6.

So, x=k/y is in fact x=6/y.

When x=9:

9=6/y

9y=6

y=6/9=2/3.

<em>x = z / y</em>

<em>when x = 3, y = 2</em>

<em>3 = z / 2</em>
<em>z = 6</em>

<em>when x = 9, z = 6 </em>

<em>9 = 6 / y</em>

<em>y = 6 / 9 = 2 / 3 Answer</em>

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-2, 5) and (-6, 7).
Vlad1618 [11]
The slope would be - 1/2 !!

you would number the x and y values of the coordinates.

( -2 , 5 ) ( -6 , 7 )
x1. y1. x2. y2

then do the formula that gives you the slope y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

this gives you:

7 - 5 / -6 - (-2) = 2/ -4 (simplify) -1/2

so this would give you m= -1/2

mina [271]
From F.S 1, consider this series : 8, 1, 8, 8, 64, 64*8. 

Again, consider the series 2, 1/4, 1/2, 1/8, 1/16, 1/(8*16). Clearly, the difference of the 6th and the 3rd term is different for them. Insufficient.

<span>From F.S 2, let the series be </span><span><span>a,b,ab,a<span>b2</span>,<span>a2</span><span>b3</span>,<span>a3</span><span>b5</span></span><span>a,b,ab,a<span>b2</span>,<span>a2</span><span>b3</span>,<span>a3</span><span>b5</span></span></span><span>. Now we know that </span><span><span>a<span>b2</span>=1</span><span>a<span>b2</span>=1</span></span>. The required difference =<span><span><span>a3</span><span>b5</span>−ab=ab(<span>a2</span><span>b4</span>−1)=ab[(a<span>b2</span><span>)2</span>−1]</span><span><span>a3</span><span>b5</span>−ab=ab(<span>a2</span><span>b4</span>−1)=ab[(a<span>b2</span><span>)2</span>−1]</span></span><span>= 0.Sufficient.</span>
