please tell me the answer ​

Answer 1

x is inversely proportional to y.

On removing proportional there will be a constant.

Let constant be k.

So, x = k/y

Putting given values to calculate 'k'.

x = 12 when y = 33

12 = k/33

k = 396

So, our required equation is x = 396/y

Now, solving for x when y = 11

Putting values, we get

x = 396/11

x = 36

So, answer is 36.

Thank you.

Answer 2

Answer:

answer=36.

Step-by-step explanation:

xy=constant

so when x=12y=33 and

when y=11

x=12×33/11=36

hence=x=36 this is the answer.

therefore the answer is 36
