If y varies inversely with x and y = 6 when x = 3, then what is y when x = 2?

Mathematics

Answer:

Correct answer is A. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If y varies inversely with x the formula reads y = k/x

where the k is coefficient of proportionality

Now we will replace x=3 and y=6 to find value of k

6 = k / 3 => k = 6 · 3 = 18 => k = 18

Now we will replace x=2 and get y

y = 18/2 = 9 => y=9

A circle with radius of 2cm sits inside a circle with radius of 4cm What is the area of the shaded region
Klio2033 [76]

ANSWER

12\pi \:  {cm}^{2}

EXPLANATION

We want to find the area of the shaded region.

We find the area of the smaller circle and subtract from the area of the larger circle.

Area of smaller circle is

a = \pi \: \times   2^{2}  = 4\pi

Area of larger circle is

A = \pi \:   \times {4}^{2}  = 16\pi

The area of the shaded region is:

16\pi - 4\pi = 12\pi

What is Y equals negative 2X plus 6 in standard form
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

2x + y - 6 = 0

OR 2x + y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the equation given in the problem:

y = -2x + 6        This is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).

Standard form is written Ax + By + C = 0. When C is a negative number, you might also see it as Ax + By = -C.

The main difference between the two forms in that slope-intercept form isolates the 'y' whereas standard form equates to 0. Don't confuse the 'b' in standard from with the 'B' in slope-intercept form.

To convert from slope-intercept form to standard form, <u>move everything over to the side with 'y'</u>. When you move something, you do its reverse operation to the whole equation. (The reverse of addition is subtraction, the reverse of multiplication is division.)

y = -2x + 6         Do the reverse operations for -2x and +6

y + 2x - 6 = -2x + 2x + 6 - 6      Add 2x and subtract 6 on both sides

y + 2x - 6 = 0            Right side cancels out to be '0'.

2x + y - 6 = 0       Rewrite with the 'x' in front of the 'y'

Here you can see the new equation and what each variable in Ax + By + C = 0 is.

A = 2

B = 1              When a number is not written with the variable, it is 1.

C = -6

Some teachers ask it to be rewritten as Ax + By = -C when 'C' is a negative number.

2x + y = 6
