Hi ,

This is related to Direct proportion.

If two quantities are are so related that

an increase ( or decrease ) in one causes

a corresponding increase ( or decrease )

in other , then they are said to be in direct

proportion ( or ) direct variation.

If in two variables x and y, x /y is constant,

then x and y are said to be in direct variation.

____________________________________

Number of defective | number of bulbs
bulbs | produced
____________________________________

x1 = 1 | y1 = 10
_____________________________________

x2 = ? | y2 = 630
____________________________________

x1 / y1 = x2 / y2

1/ 10 = x2 / 630

( 1 × 630 ) / 10 = x2

63 = x2

Therefore,

Number of defective bulbs are 63 produced

each day.

I hope this helps you.

:)
