If y varies inversely as x and y= 2/5 when x= 2, find y when x= 1

Mathematics

Alik [6]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

y = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y varies inversely as x.

\therefore \: y  =  \frac{k}{x}  \\ (k = constant \: of \: proportionality) \\  \therefore \: xy = k...(1) \\ plug \: y =  \frac{2}{5}  \: and \: x = 2 \: in \: (1) \\  2\times \frac{2}{5}   = k \\  \implies \: k =  \frac{4}{5}  \\ substituting \: k=  \frac{4}{5}  \: in \: (1) \\ xy =  \frac{4}{5} ..(2) \\ this \: i s \: the \: equation \: of \: variation \\ plug \: x = 1 \: in \: (2) \\ 1 \times y =  \frac{4}{5}  \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{y =   \frac{4}{5}  }}

Ana tried to prove that an exterior triangle angle measure equals the sum of the measures of the two
maxonik [38]

The first mistake of Ana is sum of interior is 180° that is given by the definition. Then the correct option is A.

The statements, reasons, and options are attached below.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. The angles of the triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Linear angle – If the total of two angles is 180 degrees, they are said to be linear angles.

Ana tried to prove that an exterior triangle angle measure equals the sum of the measures of the two interior angles not adjacent to it.

∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180° (By definition of triangle)

∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (By definition of linear angle)

∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = ∠3 + ∠4 (Substitution)

∠1 + ∠2 = ∠4 (Subtraction on both side by ∠3)

The first mistake of Ana is sum of interior is 180° that is given by the definition.

Then the correct option is A.

More about the triangle link is given below.

Explanation:

Multiply $31.20 by 0.22 (22%)
Which equals 6.864
Add that to $31.20 and you get 38.064
Then you round it and get $38.06

This one also thx PLZZ be right
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

D. x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

  • \frac{1}{2} x+3=\frac{5}{2} x-1
  • \frac{1}{2} x-\frac{5}{2 }x=-1-3
  • -\frac{4}{2} x=-4
  • -\frac{4}{2} x (-\frac{2}{4} )=-4(-\frac{2}{4} )
  • x = -4(-\frac{2}{4} )
  • x=2

Answer:

270

Step-by-step explanation:

For any arithmetic sequence

nth term is given by

nth term = a + (n-1)d

where a is first term,

d is common difference

d is given by nth term - (n-1)th term

sum of n terms given by

sum = n/2(2a + (n-1)d)

________________________________________________

Given arithmetic sequence

-2,0,2,4,6,8...

first term a = -2

lets take third term as nth term and second term as (n-1)th term to find common difference d.

d = 2 - 0 = 2

using a = -2 , d = 2, n = 18

thus, sum of first 18 terms = n/2(2a + (n-1)d)

                                           =18/2( 2*(-2) + (18-1) 2)

                                           =9 ( -4 + 34)

                                           =9 ( 30) = 270

Thus, sum of first 18 terms is 270.
