Loosely, "varies inversely" means that as one quantity increases, the other decreases. Specifically, if x and y vary inversely, then y = k/x where k is some constant (a particular number).
Another way to write that relationship is xy = k. To find the value of k for this problem, you need a numbers for x and y that go together.
Suppose x = number of children and y = number of candies (it doesn't matter what order these go in as long as you keep track!).
"When 12 children are present, 140 pieces of candy are consumed." So when x = 12, the value of y = 140.
xy = k
(12)(140) = k
1680 = k
Now, when x = 8 children,
8y = 1680
y = 210
Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Just add the 2 function
a) 8:14
b) 6:8
yeah its telling me I'm short of words
10 squared + 13 squared = your answer squared.
So do that then take the square root of whatever you get.
Answer: C.
Step-by-step explanation:
C. Without a table or graph, you might forget what an equation represents.
Hope this helps!!! Good luck!!! :)
