Y is inversely proportional to x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is inversely proportional to x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of proportionality

To find k use the condition that y = 7, x = 9

k = yx = 7 × 9 = 63, thus

y = \frac{63}{x} ← equation of proportion

When x = 21, then

y = \frac{63}{21} = 3

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given intervals

( - ∞, - 5) ← use any value < - 5 but not - 5, the parenthesis ) indicates that x is less than - 5 but not equal to - 5

(- 5, - 1) ← - 4, - 3, - 2 can be used but not - 5 or - 1

(- 1, 4) ← 0, 1, 2, 3 can be used but not - 1 or 4

(4, ∞ ) ← use any value > 4 but not 4

Hence

3 can be used in (- 1, 4)

- 6 can be used in (- ∞, - 5)

zero can be used in (- 1, 4)

- 5 cannot be used in any of the given intervals

Y=x^2 -9x at x = 4 Find an equation of the tangent an an equation of the normal
Montano1993 [528]

The tangent line to <em>y</em> = <em>f(x)</em> at a point (<em>a</em>, <em>f(a)</em> ) has slope d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> at <em>x</em> = <em>a</em>. So first compute the derivative:

<em>y</em> = <em>x</em>² - 9<em>x</em>   →   d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2<em>x</em> - 9

When <em>x</em> = 4, the function takes on a value of

<em>y</em> = 4² - 9•4 = -20

and the derivative is

d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> (4) = 2•4 - 9 = -1

Then use the point-slope formula to get the equation of the tangent line:

<em>y</em> - (-20) = -1 (<em>x</em> - 4)

<em>y</em> + 20 = -<em>x</em> + 4

<em>y</em> = -<em>x</em> - 24

The normal line is perpendicular to the tangent, so its slope is -1/(-1) = 1. It passes through the same point, so its equation is

<em>y</em> - (-20) = 1 (<em>x</em> - 4)

<em>y</em> + 20 = <em>x</em> - 4

<em>y</em> = <em>x</em> - 24

Joshua Treet had a $400.00 average monthly expenditure for entertainment during the second quarter of the year. He spent $401.50
irga5000 [103]
First, the formula for the average of a data set must be defined. It is calculated by adding all the numbers in the data set and then dividing the sum by the number of data. In this case, the average is set to be equal to $400 with the total number of data being 3, with the September expenditure set as an unknown, x. The equation is then set-up to be: 400 = (401.5 + 250 + x)/3. Thus, Joshua can spend as much as $ 548.5 to be able to have the same average as in his second quarter expenditure.
