Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
xy = k
where k is the constant of variation.
We can also express the relationship between x and y as:
y =
where k is the constant of variation.
Since k is constant, we can find k given any point by multiplying the x-coordinate by the y-coordinate. For example, if y varies inversely as x, and x = 5 when y = 2, then the constant of variation is k = xy = 5(2) = 10. Thus, the equation describing this inverse variation is xy = 10 or y = .
Example 1: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 6 when x = , write an equation describing this inverse variation.
k = (6) = 8
xy = 8 or y =
Example 2: If y varies inversely as x, and the constant of variation is k = , what is y when x = 10?
xy =
10y =
y = × = × =
k is constant. Thus, given any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) which satisfy the inverse variation, x1y1 = k and x2y2 = k. Consequently, x1y1 = x2y2 for any two points that satisfy the inverse variation.
Example 3: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 10 when x = 6, then what is y when x = 15?
x1y1 = x2y2
6(10) = 15y
60 = 15y
y = 4
Thus, when x = 6, y = 4.
2nd answer choice
constant of variation is xy. XY=23. If X=7 then Y=23/7.

The sum of the interior angles of any triangle is equal to 180 degrees.
Answer:
x = 1± 3i
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-2x+10=0
We can complete the square to solve by subtracting 10 from each side
x^2-2x+10-10=-10
x^2 -2x = -10
We need to add (2/2) ^2 to each side or 1
x^2 -2x+1 = -10 +1
x^2 -2x+1 = -9
The left side factors into (x- (2/2) ) ^2
(x-1) ^2 = -9
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-1) ^2 =± sqrt(-9)
x-1 = ±sqrt(-1) sqrt(3)
Remember the sqrt(-1) = i
x-1 = ± 3i
Add 1 to each side
x-1+1 = 1± 3i
x = 1± 3i
All of my resources are saying that this has no inverse.
