Answer:

If

y

varies inversely as

x

then

XXX

x

⋅

y

=

c

for some constant

c

We are told when

x

=

2

then

y

=

15

So

XXX

2

⋅

15

=

c

XXX

⇒

c

=

30

and

XXX

x

⋅

y

=

30

Therefore when

y

=

3

XXX

x

⋅

3

=

30

XXX

→

x

=

10

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

10 strands

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the room = 40 + 40 + 40 + 40 = 160 ft

Diagonal length of the room = √(40² + 40²) = 40√2 ft

Total length = 160 + 40√2 + 40√2 = 273.14 ft (Nearest hundredth)

Strands needed = 273.14 ÷ 30 = 10 (Next nearest whole number)
