Answer: Y = 7/8x+ 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
- you would subtract both y 7
- subtract both x -8
- y=7/8x+b
- 3= 7/8 x-2 +b
- 3 = 1.75 + b
- -1.75 -1.75
- 2.25 = b
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, y varies inversely as x.
My understanding is that when the power is a negative number, move it to the denominator and change it to positive.
In this case, the base is y, the power is -3
y^(-3)=1/(y^3)
The answer is -7.137x10^-3
