Problem:-

2.) z varies jointly as x and y. If z = 26 when x = 4 and y = 6, find the constant of variation and the equation of the relation.

Solution:-


\sf{z = kxy}


\sf\rightarrow{16=k(4)(6)}


\sf\rightarrow{K= (16)/(24) }


\sf\rightarrow{K={\color{magenta}{ (2)/(3) }}}

Answer:-

The equation of variation is,


\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \color{red}\sf{z = (2)/(3) \: xy.}
