Answer:

i) k = 36.8

ii)y = 36.8/square root of x

iii)y = 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

If y is inversely proportional to square root of x;

then the two variables are related by,

y = k/ square root of x

i)Value of k when...x = 8 and y = 13,

substitute into the equation above..so as to find the value of k

13 = k/square root of 8

;k = 13 × square root of 8

;k = 36.8

ii)Then substitute the value of k with...36.8

y = 36.8/square root of x

iii)If x = 27...then y =;

y = 36.8/27

y = 1.4
