Answer:

The value of x is 5.

Explanation:

An inverse variation is a relationship between two variables in which as the value of one increases, the value of the other decreases.

Thus,

x \alpha \frac{1}{y}

⇒ x = \frac{k}{y}

where k is the constant of proportionality.

Given that: x = 25, y = 3, then;

25 = \frac{k}{3}

k = 3 x 25

  = 75

The constant of variation is 75.

The value of x when y = 15 can be determined as;

x = \frac{75}{15}

  = 5

The value of x when k = 75 and y = 15 is 5.

Historically, what has been the policy of most countries regarding indian languages in latin america?
Igoryamba

In general, the native Indian languages in Latin America were able to survive. This was because the colonial governments were not forbidding the native languages and were not punishing the people for using them. Instead, the politics was, that the language of the colonists is a must-known language for everyday communication between the different people, but they can use their own languages in the communication between themselves and at home. This is why the countries in Latin America nowadays have multiple official languages, most of which are native Indian languages.
