Answer:
x = 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Direct variation:
y = kx
We use the given x-y point to find k.
6 = k * 2/3
k = 6 * 3/2
k = 9
The equation is
y = 9x
For y = 12,
12 = 9x
x = 12/9
x = 4/3
Answer:
3.7 < √14 < 3.8
Step-by-step explanation:
First approximation
9 < 14 < 16, so
3 < √14 < 4
Second approximation
14 is closer to 16 than to 9.
Is √14 between 3.7 and 3.8? If so, then
3.7² < 14 < 3.8²
13.69 < 14 < 14.44. TRUE
The inequality is 3.7 < √14 < 3.8.
