X and y vary inversely means y is inversely proportional to x, this means:

y=k/x, where k is a constant.

We are given that when x=-4, y=7/2, we replace these values to find k.

7/2=k/-4
k= (-4*7)/2=-14

So we have y=-14/x

Therefore, when x=4, y=-14/4= -7/2

Maths help please!!!!!!

Answer:

VW = √2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x+1

x²+y²+2x+2y+1=0 (x²+2x+1) + (y²+2y+1) = 1

(x+1)² + (y+1)² = 1 : Circle: (x-h)² + (y-k)² = r² Center (O): (h , k) = (-1 , -1) r = 1

solve for roots: x²+(x+1)²+2x+2(x+1)+1=0

2x² + 6x + 4 = 0 x²+3x+2=0

(x+1)(x+2)=0

x = -1 or x = -2

y = 0 or y = -1

V and W: (-1 , 0) and (-2 , -1) forms a 90° center angle

√vw = √1²+1² = √2

Find the value of x number on top is 6 and other is 9

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

x = - 12, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

By tangent secant theorem:

$x(x + 9) = {6}^{2} \\ \\ {x}^{2} + 9x = 36 \\ \\ {x}^{2} + 9x - 36 = 0 \\ \\ {x}^{2} + 12x - 3x - 36 = 0 \\ \\ x(x + 12) - 3(x + 12) = 0 \\ \\ (x + 12)(x - 3) = 0 \\ \\ x + 12 = 0, \: \: x - 3 = 0 \\ \\ x = - 12, \: \: x = 3 \\ \\$

A rectangle has a length that is three times the width . The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 feet.what is the area of the recta

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The area is 15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

So you are going to need two different equations-

l = w(3)

2l + 2w = 40

Insert the first equation into the second-

2(3w) + 2w = 40

Simplify this equation-

6w + 2w = 40

8w = 40

Divide both sides by 5

w = 5

Solve first equation

l = 5(3)

l = 15

Then find the area-

5 x 15 = 75
