Answer:

y=5 when x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the format for inverse proportions: y=k/x

To find k, substitute 25 in for y and 4 for x to find:

25=k/4 ⇒ k=100

Using this we can substitute k and x in for 100 and 20 to find:

y=100/20 ⇒ y=5

If the measure of angle 2 is 92 degrees and the measure of angle 4 is (one-half x) degrees, what is the value of x?

zavuch27 [327]

Answer: x = 184°

Step-by-step explanation: As we can see in the figure below, angles 2 and 4 are <u>Vertical</u> <u>Angles</u>, i.e., they are angles opposite each other when two lines cross. Vertical angles are always congruent.

Then,

m∠2 = m∠4

$92=x.(\frac{1}{2})$

$92=\frac{x}{2}$

Value of x is

$x=92(2)$

x = 184

The value of x is 184°.

I don't understand. What are the values given? Are they values of an x,y plot?
If you plot them they are a straight line with y =6x - 2.9 but I don't know what you mean by when x=3 and y = 4?
