If p is inversely proportional to q; and when p = 15 then q = 8. Then find p when q = 6

Answer 1

Answer:

Sorry i can't understand

Answer 2

Given:

If p is inversely proportional to q so we can write is as:

Let $p=\frac{k}{q}$ where k is constant

Find the value of k as putting the value of p and q

For p=15 and q=8

$15=\frac{k}{8}$

k=15 × 8

k= 120

∴ $p=\frac{120}{q}$

For q = 6 find the value of p

$p=\frac{k}{q}\\p=\frac{120}{6}$

p=20

Hence the value of p is 20
