hi

OpenStudy (vshiroky):

OpenStudy (vshiroky):

.8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If y varies inversely with x, y=k/x or alternatively xy=k, where k is a constant; i.e. the product of x and y is always constant.

OpenStudy (hoblos):

try once again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can someone please help on my question

OpenStudy (vshiroky):

I'm trying...

OpenStudy (vshiroky):

I don't know then

OpenStudy (hoblos):

what's k ?

OpenStudy (vshiroky):

80

OpenStudy (hoblos):

i guess you are assuming y varies inversely to squared x no ? it's just x without squared

OpenStudy (vshiroky):

So then it would be... 8

OpenStudy (hoblos):

y = k/x 20 = k/2 so k=?

OpenStudy (vshiroky):

4 is the answer

OpenStudy (hoblos):

now it's correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = K/x (K any number) When x = 2-> y = 20 -> K = 40 -> x = K/40 When x = 10 -> y = 40/10 = 4.
