Answer: The Inverse variation

Step-by-step explanation:

The phrase “ y varies inversely as x” or “ y is inversely proportional to x” means that as x gets bigger, y gets smaller, or vice versa. This concept is translated in two ways. yx = k for some constant k, called the constant of proportionality.

Define bisect and midpoint. Using constructions, draw and label an angle bisector and a perpendicular bisector. Show segment add
larisa [96]

Bisect is a word that means to divide a thing, line or a circle into two parts. While midpoint is known as the middle point that exist in a line segment.

<h3>What is Angle addition postulate?</h3>

This theory states that if two angles are said to be put beside each other, the resulting angle is said to be equal in terms of the sum of the two real angle measures.

Note therefore, that that Bisect is a word that means to divide a thing, line or a circle into two parts. While midpoint is known as the middle point that exist in a line segment.

the length of marshalls retangular poster is 2 times the width if the perimeter is 24 inches what is the area
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Let us assume the width of the rectangle = x
Then
The length of the rectangle = 2x
The perimeter of the rectangle = 24 inches
We know the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is
Perimeter = 2 (length + Breadth)
24 = 2 (2x + x)
24 = 2 * 3x
24 = 6x
x = 24/6
   = 4
So the width of the rectangle = 4 inches
length of the rectangle = 2x
                                     = 2 * 4 inches
                                     = 8 inches
Now 
The Area of the rectangle = Width * Length
                                          = 4 * 8 inches^2
                                          = 32 inches ^2
So the area of the rectangle is 32 square inches. I hope i have helped you.

What is the distance apart (-6, -4.7) and (-6, 4.1)
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

8.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally, to find the distance between two points, you would use the distance formula, but these two points have the same x-coordinate, meaning they will form a vertical line when connected. To find the length of a vertical line you find the distance between the y-coordinates, in this case -4.7 and 4.1. Finding the distance is the same as finding the absolute value of the difference:

|4.1 -(-4.7)|

|4.1 + 4.7|

|8.8|
