If z varies jointly as x and y, and z = 6 when x = 4 and y = 10, find z when x = 20 and y = 8. |

Answer» Answer: is given that Z varies jointly as x and the square root of y if z=6 when x=3 and y=16, therefore, z=kx y
⇒6=k×3× 16
⇒6=k×3×4 ⇒12k=6 ⇒k= 12 6
= 2 1
THUS, the general equation is z= 2 1
x y
. Since x=7 and y=4, therefore, z= 2 1
x y
= 2 1
×7× 4
= 2 1
×7×2=7 Hence, z=7 cm when x=7 and y=4. Step-by-step explanation: FOLLOW now |
