Just cross multiply to find value of x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5 7
----=---
2x-3 3x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then what?

@ivettef365
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
(5)(3x) = 7(2x-3)
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
can you take it from there?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes, probably.
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
What did you get?

15x=14x-21
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
good and now just subtract 14x on each side
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1x=-21
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=-21

Suppose y varies inversly with x. write an equation for the inverse vaiation.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=7 when x=3

@hartnn
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
Use formula y=kx

ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that is..?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hello?
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
Sorry that is the direct variation
the inverse variation is y = k/x
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
which can also be read as yx= k

OpenStudy (ivettef365):
therefore you have (3)(7)=k
OpenStudy (ivettef365):
the inverse variation would be y = 21/k or you can write it as xy=21
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I know I figured it out same with 29
