Question 177521: For the function f, y= F(x) is inversely proportional to x, where x > 0. If f(4)=64. and the value of f(x)=32, what is the value of x? Answer by Mathtut(3670) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! if y is inversely proportional to x then
:
yx=k.....where k is a constant
:
64(4)=256.....so our constant in this case is 256
:
so now we want to find x when y=32
:
32(x)=256
