Question

The variable is Z is inversely proportional to X. When X is 6, Z has the value 0.5. What is the value of Z when X = 10

Answer 1

given that z is inversely proportional to x, then:
zα1/x
hence;
z=k/x
where k is the constant of proportionality;
this implies that:
k=xz
when x=6,z=0.5
thus;
k=0.5*6
k=3
hence;
z=3/x
when x=10,
z=3/10
the answer is 3/10
