\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad y=\cfrac{k}{x}\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} k=constant\ of\\ \qquad variation \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}


\bf \stackrel{\textit{\underline{n} scarves is inversely proportional to the area \underline{a} of each scarf}}{n=\cfrac{k}{a}} \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} a=3\\ n=16 \end{cases}\implies 16=\cfrac{k}{3}\implies 48=k~\hfill \boxed{n=\cfrac{48}{a}} \\\\\\ \textit{when a = 4, what is \underline{n}?}\qquad n=\cfrac{48}{4}\implies n=12

What's a rational number between 7.7 and 7.9?
svet-max [94.6K]
A rational number is a number that can be expressed as the relationship between two integers. Fractions and decimals will either repeat or end. An example is 5. Maybe 7. 53573 is an example as well. So is 5/1, because 5 and 1 are both integers. so is 7.5, because 7 and 5 are both integers, and it ends (the numbers after the decimal doesn't keep going). Your answer is 7.8, because it ends.
