Answer:
y = 2.4
Step-by-step explanation:
If y varies inversely as x, it means there's an inverse relationship between y and x, that is if x is increasing, y is decreasing and vice versa. In such instance, we have to find the constant of proportionality "k"
Hence,
y~1/x
y=k/x
When y =-6 and x =-2, we insert these values to find the value of the constant "k"
-6 = k/-2
k = 12.
Using this value of k to determine value of y when x =5 becomes:
y = 12/5
y = 2.4
The answer is -2 to your 8th grade algebra question hope it is right
Answer: 65
Step-by-step explanation:
65 mph x 2 = 130 miles in 2 hours
520 total miles - 130 = 390
8 total hours - 2 hours = 6 hours
390 / 6 = 65 ave mph
Answer:
x is 7 and y is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
So you can replace the x in the first equation:
2*(-6y+7)-9y = 14
distributive law
-12y+14-9y = 14
-21y+14=14
-14
-21y = 0
:(-21)
y = 0
Now you replace the y in the second equation with 0
x = -6*0+7
x = 7
ANSWER: x is 7 and y is 0
