SOLUTION
If the table represents an inverse variation, it means that y is inversely proportional to x, written as
Removing the proportionality sign and introducing a constant k, we have
In the first column, we have x = -4 and y = 3.5. Substituting these values for x and y, we have
So, if it's an inverse variation, the relationship would be
In the second column, x = -2 and y = 7.
Now lets substitute the value of x for -2. If we get y to be 7, then the relationship is an inverse variation
We have
Since we got y = 7, the relationship is therefore an inverse variation.
The constant k = -14
The equation for the inverse variation is

...18 servings=???????
18×2.6/12=3.9
the answer is 3.9
Answer: 2 days
Step-by-step explanation:
The monkeys eat 3 ²/₃ buckets of bananas each day. Convert this to an improper fraction:
= 3²/₃ = 11/3 buckets per day
The zookeeper bought 7¹/₃ which is:
= 22/3 buckets
To find out the number of days the bananas will last, divide the buckets bought by the buckets eaten per day:
= 22/3 ÷ 11/3
= 22/3 * 3/11
= 66/33
= 2 days
<em>If dividing fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. </em>
We can first convert 9.5 into fraction :
9.5= 9 1/2
Then we can use deduction to find out the answer:
9 1/2 - 6 1/3
=19/2 - 19/3
We change it to the same denominator:
=19×3/6 - 19×2/6
= 57/6 - 38/6
= 19/6
Therefore there are 19/6 or 3 1/6 gallons left in the tank.
Hope it helps!
