Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 )  Y∝ 1 / X

Y = k / X

Y = 9 , X = -5

Putting the values in the relation above

9 = k / - 5

k = -45

Y = - 45 / X

Put Y = - 6

- 6 = - 45 / X

X = - 45 / -6

= 7.5

2 )

Luke and Nora can peel 12 carrots in 5 minutes

in 1 minute Luke and Nora can peel 12 / 5 carrot

in 1 minute Luke alone   can peel 12/ 11 carrot .

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel (12 / 5 -  12/ 11  ) carrot

(12 / 5 -  12 / 11  )

= 2.4 - 1.1

= 1.3 carrot

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 1.3 carrot

1.3 carrot in 1 minute

8 carrot in 8 / 1.3 minute

= 6.15 minutes.

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 8 carrot in 6.15 minutes working alone.

Answer:

The median is 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you put all the numbers in order. (37, 44, 46, 54, 62, 88) then you look for the middle number. Since there is two middle numbers, you add them together then divide it by 2.

So 46+54= 100

100/2= 50
