Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y is inversely proportional to x then the equation relating them is

y = $\frac{k}{x}$ ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition when y = 10, x = 2 , then

10 = $\frac{k}{2}$ ( multiply both sides by 2 )

20 = k

y = $\frac{20}{x}$ ← equation of proportion

When y = 5

5 = $\frac{20}{x}$ ( multiply both sides by x )

5x = 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 4
