Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

since y is inversely proportional to x the equation relating them is

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x}[/tex] ← k is the constant of proportionality

to find k use the given condition when y = 7, x = 9

k = yx = 7 × 9 = 63

y = [tex]\frac{63}{x}[/tex] ← is the equation connecting them

when x = 21, then

y = [tex]\frac{63}{21}[/tex] = 3
