Answer:

When x = 15, y= 2

When y= 10, x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question in inverse proportion. In this proportion, an increase in one quantity would lead to a decrease in the other and vice versa.

We are to complete the table using the relationship between x and y.

Given:

y is inversely proportional to x = y ∝ 1/x

∝ = proportional to

y ∝ 1/x

y = k × 1/x

Where k = constant of proportionality

To understand the relationship between y and x, we need to find the value of k.

y = k × 1/x

From the table,

When x = 6, y = 5

5 = k × 1/6

5 = k/6

k = 6×5 = 30

y = 30 × 1/x

y = 30/x

The above relationship would enable us find the missing parts.

When x = 15, y= ?

y = 30/15

y = 2

When y= 10, x= ?

10 = 30/x

10x = 30

x = 30/10

x= 3

Blue's Berry Farm charges Percy a total of
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The price for each kilogram of strawberries is $7.50

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is</em></u>

Blues berry farm charges Percy a total of $24.75 for entrance and 2.5 kilograms of strawberries. The entrance fee is $6 and the price for each kilogram of strawberries is constant

Determine the price for each kilogram of strawberries

Let

x ----> the price for each kilogram of strawberries

we know that

The entrance fee plus the price of each kilogram of strawberries multiplied by the number of kilogram of strawberries must be equal to $24.75

so

The linear equation that represent this situation is

2.5x+6=24.75

solve for x

subtract 6 both sides

2.5x=24.75-6\\2.5x=18.75

divide by 2.5 both sides

x=\$7.50

therefore

The price for each kilogram of strawberries is $7.50

Which statement identifies how to show that j(x) = 11.6ex and k(x) = In (StartFraction x Over 11.6 EndFraction) are inverse func
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

<h2>It must be shown that both j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6}, to show that both equality functions are true, all we need to show is that both  j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x,

For j(k(x));

j(k(x)) = j[(ln x/11.6)]

j[(ln (x/11.6)] = 11.6e^{ln (x/11.6)}

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6(x/11.6) (exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm)

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6 * x/11.6

j[(ln x/11.6)] = x

Hence j[k(x)] = x

Similarly for k[j(x)];

k[j(x)] = k[11.6e^x]

k[11.6e^x] = ln (11.6e^x/11.6)

k[11.6e^x]  = ln(e^x)

exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm leaving x

k[11.6e^x]  = x

Hence k[j(x)] = x

From the calculations above, it can be seen that j[k(x)] =  k[j(x)]  = x, this shows that the functions j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6} are inverse functions.

A thin sheet of ice is in the form of a circle. If the ice is melting in such a way that the area of the sheet is decreasing at
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

dx/dt  =  0,04 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the circle is:

A(c) =π*x²      where   x is a radius of the circle

Applying differentiation in relation to time we get:

dA(c)/dt   =  π*2*x* dx/dt    

In this equation we know:

dA(c)/dt  = 0,5 m²/sec

And are looking for dx/dt then

0,5  = 2*π*x*dx/dt    when the area of the sheet is 12 m²  (1)

When  A(c) = 12 m²      x = ??

A(c)  =  12  =  π*x²      ⇒    12  =  3.14* x²    ⇒  12/3.14  =  x²

x²  = 3,82     ⇒   x  = √3,82    ⇒  x = 1,954 m

Finally plugging ths value in equation (1)

0,5  = 6,28*1,954*dx/dt

dx/dt  =  0,5 /12.28

dx/dt  =  0,04 m/sec
