Does the data in the table represent a direct variation or an inverse variation? Write an equation to model the data in the table. X:2,4,8,12 Y:6,3,3/2,1

- Inverse Variation

- Equation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

X-> 2 | 4 | 8 | 12

Y-> 6 | 3 | 3/2 | 1

Required

- State the type of variation the table represents

- Determine the equation to model the data

To check for type of variation; we'll make use of trial by error method.

To start with; We'll check for direct variation.

This is done using the following expression;

where k is the constant of variation

Make k the subject of formula

When Y = 6, X= 2

When Y = 3, X = 4

There's no need to check further as both values of k are not equal

To check for inverse variation;

Make k the subject of formula

When Y = 6, X= 2

When Y = 3, X = 4

When Y = 3/2; X = 8

When Y = 1, X = 12

Note that for all values of X and Y, K remains constant;

Hence, the table represents an inverse direction

To determine the equation;

We make use of  

Substitute 12 for k

So, the equation becomes

Reorder

Hence, the equation is

step-by-step explanation:

. your answer will contain x - and y -terms. (1 point) x ( ¿¿ 2 − 7 ) 2 +( y 2 − 9 ) 2 √ ¿ 12. what is the distance from the directrix (the crocodile river) to the point ( x , y )? write this equation. your answer will contain a y -term.

2. angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees.

step-by-step explanation:  

we have been given a diagram of a circle and we are told that measure of arc qvt is 156 degrees.  

we can see from our given diagram that angle qrt and angle qst subtends to arc qvt.

since we know that angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are always equal.

by angle subtended by same arc theorem, measure of angle qrt and angle qst will be equal to the measure of arc qvt.

therefore, angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees and 2nd statement is the correct choice.
