Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse variation is of the form

xy = k where k is a constant

x=4 and y = 32

4*32 = k

128 = k

xy = 128

Let x = 8

8y = 128

Divide each side by 8

8y/8 = 128/8

y =16

OlgaM077 [116]

The sphere has surface are of 900π m².

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Diameter = d = 30m

Radius = $\frac{d}{2} =\frac{30}{2} = 15m$

Surface area of sphere = $4\pi\ r^2$

$Surface\ area = 4*\pi *(15)^2\\Surface\ area = 4*\pi * 225\\Surface\ area= 990\pi$
