If y varies inversely as x. Using the coordinates (5, 3) and (x, 2.5), find the missing value x.

Answer:

(6, 2.5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k substitute the coordinate point (5, 3 ) into the equation, that is

3 = \frac{k}{5} ( multiply both sides by 5 )

15 = k

y = \frac{15}{x} ← equation of variation

Using (x, 2.5 ) with y = 2.5 , then

2.5 = \frac{15}{x} ( multiply both sides by x )

2.5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 2.5 )

x = 6

Thus point is (6, 2.5 )

And how many map squares did we survive more than 29 plant species
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached Below is the missing histogram

answer: 10 map squares

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 map squares that did survive more than 29 pant species because from the given diagram we can see that the plant species above 29  are spotted in 4 map squares ( i.e. from spot 30 to 39 ) and 6 map squares ( i.e. from 30 to 49 )

hence the total number of map squares = 4 + 6 = 10 map squares

The mass of the sun is 2.13525×1030 kilograms. The mass of Mercury is 3.285×1023 kilograms. How many times greater is the mass o
Helga [31]
<span>6.5 x 10^6 To answer this question, you need to divide the mass of the sun by the mass of mercury. So 2.13525 x 10^30 / 3.285 x 10^23 = ? To do the division, divide the mantissas in the normal fashion 2.13525 / 3.285 = 0.65 And subtract the exponents. 30 - 23 = 7 So you get 0.65 x 10^7 Unless the mantissa is zero, the mantissa must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than 10. So multiply the mantissa by 10 and then subtract 1 from the exponent, giving 6.5 x 10^6 So the sun is 6.5 x 10^6 times as massive as mercury.</span>
