The value of x when y = 9 is x = 2 or x = -2

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that value of y varies inversely as the square of x, and y=4, when x=3.

Therefore the initial statement is:

y \propto \frac{1}{x^{2}}

To convert to an equation, multiply by k, the constant  of variation

y = k \times \frac{1}{x^2}

y = \frac{k}{x^2}  --- eqn 1

Given that,

y = 4 when x = 3

Now find value of k

4 = \frac{k}{3^2}\\\\4 \times 9 = k\\\\k = 36

<em><u>Find the value of x when y = 9</u></em>

x = ?

y = 9

From eqn 1,

9 = \frac{k}{x^2}\\\\9 = \frac{36}{x^2}\\\\x^2 = 4\\\\x = \pm 2

Thus value of x is found

0= 8-2x divided by 5
Stells [14]

Answer:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

0= 8− \frac{2x}{5}

0 = 8 + \frac{-2}{5}x

0 = \frac{-2}{5}x+8

Step 2: Flip the equation.

\frac{-2}{5} x + 8=0

Step 3: Subtract 8 from both sides.

\frac{-2}{5} x+8-8=0-8

\frac{-2}{5} x=-8

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 5/(-2).

(\frac{5}{-2} ) *( \frac{-2}{5} x) = (\frac{5}{-2} )*(-8)

<h2>Therefor, the answer is x=20</h2><h2 />

* Hopefully this helps. Mark me the brainliest:)!!!

On the blueprint of a house, 40 millimeters represents 6 meters. The length of the living room is 50 millimeters on the blueprin
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Convert the meters to millimeters

1m = 1000mm

6m = 6000mm

40mm represents 6000mm

Find the scale factor

6000/40 = 150

This means 40 * 150 = 6000

Yup find what 50mm represents:

50 * 150 = 7500

7500mm

7.5m
