ANSWER
The constant of variation is 6.
EXPLANATION
The inverse variation equation is:
We want to find the constant of variation, when x=-3 and y=-2.
We substitute the values for x and y to get,
Multiply out the left hand keeping in mind that negative times negative yields a positive result.
This implies that;
Hence the constant of variation is 6.
Answer: 1/4 full.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for how much gas will be left in the tank after 2/3 of the gas in the tank is used.
There is currently 3/4 of the tank remaining.
To find 2/3 of 3/4, you can multiply the fractions together.
Do this by multiplying both numerators and both denominators:
Then, subtract 6/12 from 3/4. You can do this by simplifying the first fraction to 2/4 (divide both the numerator and denominator by 3).
3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4
There will be 1/4 of the tank left.
