Question

if y various inversely as x, and y=154 when x=12,find y when x=33​

Answer 1

Answer:

As

x

and

y

are inversely proportional, the equation can be represented as

x

=

k

y

.

Substituting

x

=

2

and

y

=

12

, we get

2

=

k

12

=>

k

=

12

⋅

2

=>

k

=

24

.

Equation can be represented as

x

=

24

y

. So, when

y

=

6

, we get

x

=

24

6

=>

x

=

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Write as an inverse proportion first then make an equation by multiplying by k,

y

∝

1

x

⇒

y

=

k

x

k

=

x

×

y

Find the value of k.

k

=

2

×

12

=

24

y

=

24

x

⇒

y

=

24

6

y

=

4

You can now find any value of y or x if you are given the x or the y value.
