If q2 is inversely proportional to p + 3 and q = 5 when p = 2, find the values of q when p = 17.

f = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3f + 4 + -2f + 6 = 0

Reorder the terms:

4 + 6 + 3f + -2f = 0

Combine like terms: 4 + 6 = 10

10 + 3f + -2f = 0

Combine like terms: 3f + -2f = 1f

10 + 1f = 0

Solving

10 + 1f = 0

Solving for variable 'f'.

Move all terms containing f to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.

10 + -10 + 1f = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0

0 + 1f = 0 + -10

1f = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10

1f = -10

Divide each side by '1'.

f = -10

Simplifying

f = -10
