In indirect variation where y = (k)/(x) if y = 20 and x = 2, what is the value of y when x = 10 ?

Question

In indirect variation where y =


`(k)/(x)`

if y = 20 and x = 2, what is the value of y when x = 10 ?

Answer 1

Explanation:

y=k/x

y=20, x=2

Substitute this first to get "k"

20=k/2

k=40

Value of y when x=10... is now

y= 40/10

y=4.
