y = 3 when x = 5, find x when y = 2.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the law of variation,
y <> 1/x, where <> is the constant of proportionality. Therefore
y = k/x where k is a constant
3 = k/5 and k = 15
To find x when y = 2.5(5/2)
Go back to the second equation
y = k/x
5/2 = 15/x
When you cross multiply
5x = 30.
Divide through by 5,
x = 6.
Answer:
-7.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The stock is dropping at the rate of $1.45 each hour,
So, the change in price of the stock in one hour = - $1.45,
Thus, the total change of the stock in 5 hours
= 5 × change in 1 hour
= 5 × 1.45
= -$ 7.25
∵ A terminating decimal number is always a rational number ( however it is negative )
i.e. the rational number that represents the change in the price per share after 5 hours is -7.25.
