If y varies inversely as x and y is 2.5 when x is 6, what is y when x is 4? a. 3.75 b. 1.67 c. 0.1 d. 7.5 Please select the best
REY [17]
Because y varies inversely as x, therefore
y= \frac{k}{x}
where k =  constant.

When x = 6, y = 2.5. Ther efore
\frac{k}{6} = 2.5
Cross multiply.
k = 6 x 2.5 = 15

The equation is
y =  \frac{15}{x}

When x = 4, obtain
y =  \frac{15}{4}= 3.75

Answer: a. 3.75

OKay, i need help asap pls. The ratio__ is equivalent to 12/36. The ratio__is not equivalent to 12/36.
EleoNora [17]

The ratio of 1:3 is equivalent to 12/36. The ratio 3 / 4 is not equivalent to 12/36.

Given that,
The ratio__ is equivalent to 12/36. The ratio__is not equivalent to 12/36.
Blank statement to be filled from the options.

<h3>What is the Ratio?</h3>

The ratio can be defined as the comparison of the fraction of one quantity towards others. e.g.- water in milk.

Here,
12 / 36 = 1 / 3
and
12 / 36 ≠ 3 / 4

Thus,  the ratio of 1:3 is equivalent to 12/36. The ratio 3 / 4 is not equivalent to 12/36.

The question seems to be incomplete,
So we will fill a ratio that is equivalent to 12 / 36 and one ratio that is not equivalent to 12 / 36,
We have two ratios here 1:3 and 3:4

On a manufacturer's assembly line, 3% of its merchandise comes off defective. If the company has 354 defective items, how many t
evablogger [386]

Answer: this is the steps to working the problem and the answer is 54: 3% means 3 out of each 100. if you have 100 items, 3% is just 3. You need more than 100 times as many (you want 354), so x must be more than 100 * 100, right? 3% of 10.62 is less than 1, and the problem says there are 354 :-)

This is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 2

an = a1 * r^(n - 1)
n = term to find = 21
a1 = first term = 0.05
r = common ratio = 2
now we sub
a21 = 0.05 * 2^(21 - 1)
a21 = 0.05 * 2^20
a21 = 0.05 * 1048576
a21 = 52428.80 <==== after working 21 days

1. 1.4(x−1.6)=1.6(x−1.4)<br><br>solve<br>2. 1.4(x−1.6)=1.6(1.4−x)<br><br>solve
Bezzdna [24]
1.
1.4( x - 1.6) = 1.6(x - 1.4) \\ 1.4x - 2 .24 = 1.6x - 2.24 \\ 0.2x = 0 \\ x =  0
2.
1.4( x - 1.6) = 1.6(1.4 - x) \\ 1.4x - 2 .24 = 2.24 - 1.6x \\ 3x = 4.48 \\ x =  1.4933333
