we know that in direct variation as x increase y also increases.
in indirect variation x decreases y increase and vice versa.
in part a we have x at top (numerator ) and y at denominator it mean indirect variation (as x increases y decreases).
to find k we know that for indirect variation xy=k
if we rewrite the equation x=9/y we get xy=9
which mean k=9 .
in part b we have 4xy=20 if we simplify this equation we get

so here if we rewrite in terms of x.
we get x=5/y which represents indirect variation.
and we know xy=k
we have xy=5 .so k=5
Here, use the app photomath.
Your answer is b. hope this helps :)
____ was planning a birthday party. He/she is planning on inviting 14 people to the party. Each person will be given a goodie-bag at the end of the party. ____ decided that he/she will put 19 gummy worms into each bag. how many gummy worms will ____ need?
The answer to this problem is 266 because 14x19= 266.
the person needs 266 gummy worms if they want to put 19 into each person's goodie-bag
Answer:
In step 2, he needed to divide both sides of the equation by 5
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

Solve for a------> That means isolate the variable "a"
step 1
Subtract 2b to both sides


step 2
Divide by 5 both sides
