Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues
are:
1. x – y = 16 (so
x is the larger number)
2. y / x = 5 / 7
rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:
y = (5/7) x
combining 1 and 2:
x – (5/7) x = 16
(2/7) x = 16
x = 56
y = (5/7) x = 40
So the two numbers are 56 and 40.
The answer to the question
Answer:4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2/6=x/4 cross multiply
6x=8 x=8/6 =4/3 Divide and simplify
Inverse relationships are of the form xy=k or if you prefer y=k/x so to find the constant we can say:
18(0.25)=k=4.5
So you could say: IR=4.5 or I=4.5/R
Answer:
C. the circumference of a circle
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a square is the length of the outside, which is found by adding all the side lengths. The circumference of a circle is similar because it is also the length of the outside of the shape.
