Suppose y is inversely proportional to x. When x=20, then y=4. Find y when x=35.
The proportional constant k= ______
The function is: _____
The new value of y is: _______

Respuesta :

~ : to represent sign of proportionality
y ~ 1/x
y = k/x
x=20, y=4
4 = k/20
k = (20×4) = 80
y = 80/x
x=35, y = 80/35 = 2.29
The proportional constant k = 80
The function is: y = k/x
The new value of y is: 2.29
