Since x & y vary inversely (it means when x increases, y decreases & vice versa)
Then the equation==> y = k/x (k is a constant to be calculated)

But x=9 and y=3 (given) ==> 3=k/9 or k=27 & the equation becomes y=27/x

Answer:

$a=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is;

$(\frac{1}{7})^{3a+3} =343^{a-1}$

This implies that;

$7^{-1(3a+3)} =7^{3(a-1)}$

Equate the exponents;

$-1(3a+3) =3(a-1)$

Expand;

$-3a-3 =3a-3$

$-3a-3a =-3+3$

$-6a=0$

$a=0$

What method(s) would you choose to solve the equation: x2 + 2x - 6 = 0

Nataly_w [17]

Complete the square since can't factor
2/2=1
add 1 to both sides
x²+2x+1-6=1
factor perfect square
(x+1)²-6=1
add 6 to both sides
(x+1)²=7
sqrt both sides
x+1=+/-√7
minus 1 both sides
x=-1+/-√7

so x=-1+√7 or x=-1-√7
