Answer:

P = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that P varies inversely with x then the equation relating them is

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

To find k use the condition P = 7 when x = 8 , then

7 = \frac{k}{8} ( multiply both sides by 8 )

56 = k

P = \frac{56}{x} ← equation of variation

When x = 7 , then

P = \frac{56}{7} = 8

<h3>Quadratic equations</h3>

Quadratic equations are equations that has a leading degree of 2. Given the following system of equations

y=2x

y=x^2+2

Equate to have:

2x = x^2+ 2

Equate to zero

x^2 - 2x +2 = 0

Since the resulting equation has a leading degree of 2, hence the system of equation will have 2 solutions
