Answer:
k = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is
y = 
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 3 when x = 6, that is
3 = 
( multiply both sides by 6 )
18 = k
The constant of variation is k = 18
Answer:
56 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
When her gas tank is full, she has x gallons in the tank.
when she went to the gas station, she had (5/8) of x gallons of gas in her tank. she added 21 gallons into her tank, then she had x gallons in her tank.
(5/8)x + 21 = x
subtract x and 21 from both sides
(5/8)x - x = -21
factor out an x from the left side
x(5/8 - 1) = -21
simplify the parenthesis
x(-3/8) = -21
multiply both sides by -8/3
x= 56 gallons
Answer:
(x - 9)2 Step-by-step explanation:
