y varies inversely with x.
Example:
If we multiply x by 2 we need to divide y by 2 too.
So,
If y = 16 and x = 1/2, find y when x = 32
Lets see, from 1/2 to 32 e need to multiply 1/2 by 64, right? So let's divide 16 by 64.
16/64 = 8/32 = 4/16 = 2/8 = 1/4
So we can say that:
If y = 16 when x = 1/2, y = 1/4 when x = 32.
Equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = -1/5 x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given slope of the line is -1/5 and the point is (-10, 9). Here m=-1/5.
⇒ y = -1/5 x + b ------ (1)
- Step 2: Find the y-intercept of the line, b. Since the line passes through (-10, 9) substitute x = -10 and y = 9 in eq(1)
⇒ 9 = -1/5 × -10 + b = 2 + b
⇒ b = 9 - 2 = 7
- Step 3: Slope intercept form of the line is y = mx + b. Form the equation using the values of m and b.
⇒ y = -1/5 x + 7
It can also be written as 5y + x = 35
