Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x setup is:

y = k/x

7 = $\frac{k}{2/3}$ (find 'k')

k = 7/1 · 2/3

k = 14/3

use what you know about 'k' and 'x' to solve for 'y'

y = 14/3 ÷ 7/3 (remember to multiply by the reciprocal when dividing fractions)

y = 14/3 · 3/7

y = 2

The length of a rectangle is 3 more inches than the width. Find the length and width of the rectangle is the perimeter of the re

n200080 [17]

Part A:

Let the width of the rectangle be = x inches

As given, the length of a rectangle is 3 more inches than the width so let the length of the rectangle be = x+3 inches

Perimeter is given as = 54 inches

Perimeter = $2(l+b)$

Equation becomes:

$2(x+3+x)$ =54

$2(2x+3)=54$

Part B:

Solving the equation we get

$4x+6=54$

$4x=54-6$

$4x=48$

$x=12$

Hence, the width of the rectangle is 12 inches

Length = x+3 = 12+3 = 15 inches

Hence, length of the rectangle is 15 inches.
