Question

y varies inversely as twice x. When x = 3, y = 8. Find y when x = 2.

Answer 1

Given:
y = k/(2x)

Plug in the given values:
8 = k/(2(3)) = k/6

Solve for k:
k = (8)(6) = 48

Plug that back into the original equation:
y = 48/(2x) = 24/x

Let x = 2:

Answer 2

y = 24/2 = 12

Answer 3

sorry it cut me off there haha
