Yes as that is the function notation in play. a function of x.
Here's a little known but very useful factoid:
If they're inversely proportional,
then their product is constant.
Here's how to use it:
-- We're told that Y = 8 when X = 7.
So when y=8 and x=7, their product is 56 .
-- If Y REALLY varies inversely as X, then
their product is ALWAYS going to be 56.
-- So when Y=4, X= (56/4) = 14 .
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you know the perimeters are equal, write your equation.
x+6 + x+6 + x+6 = x + x+6 + 2x-6
combine like terms
3x + 18 = 4x
isolate your x by subtracting 3x from each side
18 = x
check your answer:
3x + 18 = 72
4x = 72
Answer: 1/2 and 3/6
Explanation: 1/2 is equal to 3/6 because if you divide both 3 and 6 by 2 it’s 1/2
Not sure about 4
