Answer:
D) 45 and 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The "varies inversely" relationship is described by the equation ...
y = k/x . . . . . . y varies inversely with x (and vice versa)
The value of k can be found from known values of x and y:
xy = k . . . . . . multiply the above equation by x
(10)(6) = k = 60 . . . . using the given values
__
To check if a given pair of numbers satisfies ...
y = 60/x
you can multiply them together to see if the product is 60.
(A) 12×5 = 60
(B) 15×4 = 60
(C) 25×2.4 = 60
(D) 45×1.2 = 54 . . . . . not a possible pair of corresponding values.
45 and 1.2 are not a possible solution for x and y.
The number of apples is x, and the number of oranges is y.
"Mia needs to bring at least 25 pieces of fruit to the school picnic."
means that x+y≥25
"She was told to be sure to bring more than 10 apples."
means that x≥10
thus, the inequalities are:
i) x+y≥25
ii) x≥10
Answer:
x=72
Step-by-step explanation:
x-9=3/4 ⋅ x+9
1/4 ⋅ x -9=9
1/4⋅x=18
x=72
