When two functions vary inversely with each other, they are usually in the form y = k / x, where k is the constant of proportionality.

To find the equation for the inverse variation, find the constant of proportionality. Do that by substituting the values for x and y into y = k / x and solving for k.

y = k / x
4 = k / 6
24 = k

Answer:
The constant of proportionality is 24. The equation for the inverse variation is y = 24/x.

How many groups of 1/2 days are in 1 week? Write a multiplication equation or a division equation to represent the question, the

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

14 groups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Groupings = \frac{1}{2}\ day$

$Duration = 1\ week$

Required

Determine the number of group in the week

To do this, we simply divide the duration by the number half day group.

This gives:

$Group = \frac{Duration}{Groupings}$

$Group = \frac{1\ week}{1/2\ days}$

Convert week to days

$Group = \frac{7\ days}{1/2\ days}$

$Group = \frac{7}{1/2}$

$Group = 7 / \frac{1}{2}$

Convert to multiplication

$Group = 7 * \frac{2}{1}$

$Group = \frac{14}{1}$

$Group = 14$

<em>Hence, there are 14 groups</em>

Find the measure of each angle indicated. Show work.

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

? = 109 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

45 + 75 + _ = 180 ( look for vertical angles)

45 + 75 + 60 = 180

60 +79 + _ = 180 (look for a straight line that forms 180 degrees)

60 + 79 + 41 = 180

68 + 41 + _ = 180 (look for a triangle that adds up to 180)

68 + 41 + 71 =180

180 - 71 = 109 (look for a linear pair)

What is the zero of the following function, f(x) = –(2/7) x − 10?

Stels [109]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the zeros of a function f are found by solving the equation f(x) = 0. Example 1. Find the zero of the linear function f is given by. f(x) = -2 x + 4 I hope this helps.
