Given that y varies inversely with x, and y = 100 when x = 3, find x if y = 60

hi how are you doing today, if you need just ask me.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

total income = price of one ticket   *   number of tickets sold

  y                 =     4                                   x

so the equation is y=4x     with x≥0   because number of tickets sold can not be negative

thus the equation is a semi -line with an end point at

(0,0)

passing through :

x=1     y=4(1) = 4   so through (1,4)

using the formula for pythagorean theorem (a2+b2=c2)(the twos are exponents), and knowing that you have b squared and c squared, just reverse it. 26 squared minus 10 squared equals c squared. 26 squared is 676 and 10 squared is 100. you get 576, then use your square roots to undo the squared numbers to get 24.
