Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

5/9=x/36

(5)*(36)=x*(9)

180=9x

Step 2: Flip the equation.

9x=180

Step 3: Divide both sides by 9.

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

puteri [66]

Answer:constant of variation(k) is, 250.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse variation says that:

then, the equation is in the form of :

       ....[1] where, k is the constant of variation

As per the statement:

Suppose that y varies inversely with x.

then,

by definition of inverse variation we have;

When x = 2.5 and y = 100 then

Substitute these in [1] we have;

Multiply 2.5 both sides we have;

or

k = 250

⇒

Therefore, the constant of variation is, 250 and the equation we get

First do prime factorization on 42 that is 5*3*3
82 that is 41*2
63 that is 3*3*7
then you do the number that appears the most like 3*3 is the most for the 3
2*3*3*5*7*41
2*3=6*3=18*5=90*7=630*41=25,830
