<h3>
Answer: y = 12/(x^2)</h3>
============================================================
Explanation:
"y varies inversely as x^2" means y = k/(x^2) for some constant k.
Plug in (x,y) = (2,3) and solve for k
y = k/(x^2)
3 = k/(2^2)
3 = k/4
3*4 = k
12 = k
k = 12
The original equation updates to y = 12/(x^2)
As a check, plugging in x = 2 should lead to y = 3
y = 12/(x^2)
y = 12/(2^2)
y = 12/4
y = 3 ... we get the proper y value, so the answer is confirmed.

Answer:
The length of the flag is 730 ft and the width is 310 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
The perimeter of the flag is 2080 ft what is the flags width and length <u>if</u> the length is 420 ft greater than the width
Let
L ----> the length of the flag
W ---> the width of the flag
we know that
The perimeter of the flag (rectangle) is equal to

we have

so

----> equation A
---> equation B
Solve the system by substitution
substitute equation B in equation A
solve for W
<em>Find the value of L</em>
----> 
therefore
The length of the flag is 730 ft and the width is 310 ft
Answer:
y = 6x + 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line
y = mx + c
Given
( 0 , 0) ( -1/2 , -3)
find the slope m
m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
x1 = 0
y1 = 0
x2 = -1/2
y2 = -3
Insert the values
m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
m = -3 - 0 / -1/2 - 0
= -3/-1/2
Minus cancels minus
= 3/1/2
= 3/1 ÷ 1/2
= 3/1 × 2/1
= 6/1
= 6
m = 6
Substitute any of the two points given into the equation of a line
y = mx + c
Where
y - intercept point y
x - intercept point x
m - slope of the line
c - intercept
(-1/2 , -3)
x = -1/2
y = -3
-3 = 6(-1/2) + c
-3 = -6/2 + c
-3 = -3 + c
-3 + 3 = c
c = 0
y = 6x + 0
The equation of the line is
y = 6x + 0
