<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Part a .............> x = 11
Part b .............> k = 57.2
Part c .............> y = 9.2
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The three problems deal with inverse variation between two variables
An inverse variation relation between two variables means that when one of the variables increases, the other will decrease (and vice versa)
<u>Mathematically, an inverse variation relation is represented as follows:</u>
where x and y are the two variables and k is the constant of variation
<u><em>Now, let's check the givens:</em></u>
<u>Part a:</u>
We are given that y = 3 and k = 33
<u>Substitute in the original relation and solve for x as follows:</u>
<u>Part b:</u>
We are given that y = 11 and x = 5.2
<u>Substitute in the original relation and solve for k as follows:</u>
<u>Part c:</u>
We are given that x=7.8 and k=72
<u>Substitute in the original relation and solve for y as follows:</u>
to the nearest tenth

6. BPT, Basic Proportionality Theorem
Basic Proportionality Theorem, BPT, states that if a line parallel to one of the sides of a triangle, intersects the other two sides, then the line divides the other two sides in the same proportion.
