Question

Write an equation describing the relationship of the given variables. y varies inversely as the cube root of x and when x=125, y=8.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 40 / x^1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

y α x^1/3

y = k * 1 / x^1/3

y = k / x^1/3

When x = 125 ; y = 8

8 = k / 125^1/3

Cube root of 125 = 5

8 = k / 5

8 * 5 = k ; k = 40

Hence, expression becomes :

y = 40 / x^1/3
