When two variables are inversely proportional the relation between them can be written as:

z=\frac{k}{x}

Here, k is the constant of proportionality and is always equal to the product of the two variables. So using the given values of z and x, we can find k first.

k=zx\\ \\  k=0.10526315789474(19)\\ \\  k=2

The constant of proportionality for the given inverse proportion comes out to be 2. Using the value of k in the equation, we get:

z=\frac{2}{x}

We have to find the value of z when x=28. So replacing x by 28, we get:

z=\frac{2}{28}\\  \\  z=0.07142857143

Thus, rounding of to nearest thousand the value of z comes out to be 0.071 if x is equal to 28.

A bag contains green marbles and red marbles, 36 in total. The number of green marbles is 1 more than 4 times the number of red
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

29

Step-by-step explanation:

Total marble = 36

Let red marbles be X

Then green marble is 4X + 1

And 4X + 1 + X = 36

5X = 36 - 1

5X = 35

X = 35/5 = 7

So, green marbles = 4X + 1

= 4(7) + 1

= 29
