Inverse proportion is of the form:
y=k/x, in this case the variables are
z=k/x, and we are given the point (6,2) so we can solve for k
2=k/6
12=k, so our equation is:
z=12/x, so when x=13
z=12/13
To get a close estimate, we can round 49 up to 50 and 311 down to 300, obtaining an estimate of 50/300 = 1/6, or 0.1666... as a repeating decimal. That decimal approximation is a little less than one hundredth away from the actual decimal approximation of ≈ 0.1576
Answer: p < -3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
2p - 4 < -3p - 7
+3p +3p
------------------------
5p - 4 < -7
+4 +4
------------------------
5p < -3 (divide by 5)
p < -3/5
