Question

Using the formula z=Kx/y
If z = 6 when x = 3 and y = 4, then what is z when x = 5 and y = 2?

Answer 1

Answer:

z=kx/y

zy=kx

zy/x=kx/x ( divided both side by x. to find k)

k=zy/x

k=6×4/3(z=6,y=4,x=3)

k=24/3

k=8

so z=kx/y

z=8×5/2(replace the numbers in the place of variables,k=8,x=5,y=2)

z=40/2

z=20
