It has been given that y varies inversely with x, therefore the equation for this relationship is as follows;
y =
\
when y = -18 and x = 6
-18 = k/ 6 ---1)
We need to find x when y = 5
5 = k/x
when we divide 1)/2), k gets cancelled
x = -18*6/5
x = -21.6
when y = 5, then x = -21.6
16 cm - 2.5 cm = 13.5 cm, which is 1/4 of the diameter of the large gear. Take 13.5 cm * 4, and you have the diameter of the large gear, which is 54 cm.

<u>Explanation</u>
x + y = 26 ............................................. (i)
x – y = 12 ............................................ (ii)
Elliot added the two equations and the result was
2x = 38.
Dividing both sides by 2;
x = 19
There are 19 fiction books.
Substituting x in equation (i),
x + y = 26 when x = 19
19 + y = 26
y = 26 - 19
= 7
There are 7 nonfiction books
Answer: y=2x+14
Explanation:
Y=mx+b
Y= 2x-4
M=2
Y= 2x+b
2 = (2 x -6) + b
2=-12+b
12+2=12+b
-12
14=0+b
14=b
Y=2x+14
If the number ends with an even number or a number that is always divisible by 2. Or every number that ends with 5 or zero is always divisible by 5 too. Bdause for example in a fraction we do 10/5 and it will be equal to 2/1 or 2. Hope it helped you!
