The variables x and y vary inversely, and y=6 when x=2. Write an equation that relates x and y. Then find y when x = 3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{12}{x} [/tex]

y= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x and y are inversely proportional to each other,

[tex]y = \frac{k}{x} ,where \: k \: is \: a \: constant.[/tex]

Let's find the value of k.

When y= 6, x= 2,

[tex]6 = \frac{k}{2} [/tex]

k= 6(2)

k= 12 (×2 on both sides)

Substitute the value of k back into the equation:

[tex]y = \frac{12}{x} [/tex]

When x=3,

[tex]y = \frac{12}{3} [/tex]

y= 4

Answers

Answer:

[tex](3,2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The method of variable substitution is a way of solving a system of equations. It involves solving one equation for a variable and then substituting in the expression that represents the value of the solved variable into the other equation. After doing so, one can solve for the unknown variable and then backsolve for the other variable.

[tex]y=-2x+8\\y=x-1[/tex]

In this system, the second equation is already solved for (y), thus one can substitute that expression into the other equation in the system.

[tex]x-1 = -2x + 8[/tex]

Now solve using inverse operations,

[tex]x -1 = -2x + 8\\+2x\\\\3x - 1 = 8\\+1\\\\3x =9\\/3\\\\x = 3[/tex]

Backsolve to find the value of (y), substitute in the value of (x), and solve for the value of (y).

[tex]y=x - 1\\[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]y=(3)-1[/tex]

Solve,

[tex]y=2[/tex]

Thus, the answer to this system of equations is the following, [tex](3,2)[/tex].

Answer:

(x = 3 and y = 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we have our 2 equations...

y = -2x + 8

y = x - 1

Lets solve them

y = -2x + 8 , y = x - 1

They both equal y  so I can put them together to equal out. Now our equation is...

x - 1 = -2x + 8

The next step is to get x on one side by itself, so change the negative symbol on -2 to addition...

3x - 1 = 8

Next step is to add 1 on both sides...

3x = 9

Divide both sides by 3...

x = 3

Now to do the other equation, which is easier.

y = x (3) - 1

or 

y = 2

Both are solved and we have ...

(x = 3 and y = 2)

At many college bookstores, students can decide whether to purchase or to rent a textbook for a class. A study was conducted to investigate whether the percent of rented textbooks for all science classes in the state was greater than the percent of rented textbooks for all literature classes in the state. The following hypothesis test was done at the significance level of α=0.05α=0.05.
H0:pS=pLHa:pS>pLH0:pS=pLHa:pS>pL
In the hypotheses, pSpS represents the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented, and pLpL represents the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.
All conditions for inference were met, and the resulting pp-value was 0.035. Which of the following is the correct decision for the test?
The pp-value is less than αα. Since 0.035<0.050.035<0.05, the null hypothesis is rejected, and the claim is supported. There is convincing statistical evidence that the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented is greater than the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.
A The pp-value is less than αα, and the null hypothesis is rejected. There is not convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented is greater than the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.
B The pp-value is less than αα, and the null hypothesis is not rejected. There is not convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented is greater than the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.
C The pp-value is greater than αα, and the null hypothesis is rejected. There is convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented is greater than the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.
D The pp-value is greater than αα, and the null hypothesis is not rejected. There is not convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented is greater than the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.

Answers

Answer:

A The p-value is less than α, and the null hypothesis is rejected. There is convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented is greater than the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Percentage rented science textbooks = pS

Percentage rented Literature textbooks = pL

To test if percentage Science textbooks in the state was greater than percentage Literature textbooks :

H0: pS = pL

Ha: pS > pL

Pvalue = 0.035 ; α = 0.05

Decision Region :

If Pvalue < α ; We reject H0

In the scenario above,

Pvalue < α ; 0.035 < 0.05 ; Hence, we reject the Null ;

We conclude that There is convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented is greater than the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented.

Find VW

To find VW, we make use of the following equivalent ratios.

[tex]YX : XW = ZX : XV[/tex]

Where:

[tex]YX = ZX - ZY = 42 - 28 = 14[/tex]

[tex]XV = XW + VW = 25 + VW[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]14 : 25 = 42 : 25 + VW[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{14 }{ 25 }= \frac{42 }{ 25 + VW}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 14

[tex]\frac{1}{ 25 }= \frac{3}{ 25 + VW}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex](25 + VW) * 1 = 3 * 25[/tex]

[tex]25 + VW = 75[/tex]

Solve for VW

[tex]VW = 75 -25[/tex]
