Answer:
xy = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for inverse variation is
xy =k
If y = 4 and x = 7
4*7 = k
28 = k
The equation is xy = 28
Answer:
Each batch of scones needed 0.67 kg of flour
Step-by-step explanation:
16.45 - 6.4 = 10.05kg (remaining)
15 batches = 10.05kg
1 batch = 0.67kg
x equals negative 8 and negative 4
Answer:
n = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
5(n-7)=2(n+14)
Distribute
5n -35 = 2n+28
Subtract 2n from each side
5n-2n -35 = 2n-2n +28
3n-35 =28
Add 35 to each side
3n-35+35 = 28+35
3n = 63
Divide by 3
3n/3 = 63/3
n =21
That's definitely an example of exponential decay, since the base (1/2) (also called the "common ratio") is greater than 0 but less than 1.
