Answer:

y=27 when x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely as the cube of x

y=k(1/X^3)

y=1 when x=6

y=k(1/X^3)

1=k(1/6^3)

1=k(1/216)

k=1÷1/216

K=1×216/1

k=216

find y when x=2

y=k(1/X^3)

y=216(1/2^3)

y=216(1/8)

y=216/8

y=27

Zoe has 5 pounds of potatos she has multiple recipes that require 3/4 pound of potatoes how many recipes will she be able to mak

Natali [406]

Amount of potatoes that Zoe has = 5 pounds
Quantity of potatoes that Zoe need for each recipe = 5/(3/4)
= 5 * (4/3)
= 20/3
= 6 2/3
From the above deduction, we can conclude that only 6 recipes can be made. The remaining amount of 2/3 will remain unused. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

Given the first three terms of a linear sequence: 3x – 2;x+9; 2x + 5 Determine the value of x.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between consecutive terms will be equal , then

a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ , that is

x + 9 - (3x - 2) = 2x + 5 - (x + 9) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

x + 9 - 3x + 2 = 2x + 5 - x - 9 , simplify both sides

- 2x + 11 = x - 4 ( subtract x from both sides )
