Because y varies inversely as x, therefore

where k = constant.
When x = 6, y = 2.5. Ther efore

Cross multiply.
k = 6 x 2.5 = 15
The equation is

When x = 4, obtain

Answer: a. 3.75
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
It is at the point -7 on x-axis and 4 on y-axis.
Answer:
14 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance is -6 - (-20)
-6+20
14
6.516 is the number in standard form
Upon formation of an equation from a given pattern, we know how the variables in the patter are related. Using the equation, we can find the value of one of the missing variables if the rest are known and also predict the values of the pattern at given conditions.
An example:
y = 2x + 5
if we are to predict the value of y at x = 3, we simply substitute 3 into x
y = 2(3) + 5
= 11
