Given that y varies inversely as x then:
y=k/x
where
k is the constant of proportionality given by:
k=yk
but
y=27 when x=2
thus
k=27×2=54
hence the function will be:
y=54x
The value of x when y is 9 will be:
9=54x
thus
x=9/54
x=1/6
Answer: Triangle
Step-by-step explanation: If you cut it vertically, the base is changed into a triangle.
Hope this helps!
We know that
in a right triangle
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem
c²=a²+b²
in this problem
c=√87 yd
a=√23 yd
b=?
so
b²=c²-a²-----> b²=(√87)²-(√23)²----> b²=87-23----> b²=64----> b=8 yd
the answer is
8 yd
There is no difficulty in this problem until you construct the figures. How can we do it is shown in the attached picture. After drawing PRST, from the point P, we can draw PMKD and later we can complete PMCT as a result. From this picture, we can see that the side of PMCT is also a. Then, the area of this square is
