Answer: y = 1.2</h3>
Work Shown:
Inverse variation equations can be written in the form x*y = k for some fixed number k. Let's plug in the first point (x,y) = (1.6, 6) to compute the value of k
x*y = k
1.6*6 = k
9.6 = k
k = 9.6
Therefore the equation updates to
x*y = 9.6
Plug in x = 8 and solve for y
x*y = 9.6
8*y = 9.6
y = 9.6/8 .... divide both sides by 8
y = 1.2

If i want the number 5 to be 4 times as large, i will multiply 5 x 4
Answer:
36 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
360/10=36 (percent is division of the number)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
- A costs 5$
- B costs $0.25
- C costs $0.05
- A + B + C = 100
- 5A + 0.25B + 0.05C = 100 ⇒ 100A + 5B + C = 2000
<u>Subtract the first equation from the second:</u>
<u>We have a restriction in numbers:</u>
<u>Since 4B can be max 400, we get 99A > 1500 and 99A < 1900 so:</u>
and
A can be 16 or 18 as it should be even number to get B the whole number.
<u>If A = 16:</u>
- 99*16 + 4B = 1900
- 4B = 1900 - 1584
- 4B = 316
- B = 316/4 = 79
<u>If A = 18:</u>
- 99*18 + 4B = 1900
- 4B = 1900 - 1782
- 4B = 118
- B = 118/4 = 29.5, discarded as decimal
<u>So we get:</u>
- A = 16, B = 79 and C = 100 - (16 + 79) = 5
<u>Let's proof the numbers:</u>
- 16*5 + 79*0.25 + 5*0.05 = 100, confirmed
