Question

if X and y varies inversely.if X is increased by 10% then find the percent change in y​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse Variation

The statement "y varies inversely as x means that when x increases, ydecreases by the same factor. In other words, the expression xy is constant:

xy = k

where k is the constant of variation.

We can also express the relationship between x and y as:

y =

where k is the constant of variation.

Since k is constant, we can find k given any point by multiplying the x-coordinate by the y-coordinate. For example, if y varies inversely as x, and x = 5 when y = 2, then the constant of variation is k = xy = 5(2) = 10. Thus, the equation describing this inverse variation is xy = 10 or y = .

Example 1: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 6 when x = , write an equation describing this inverse variation.

k = (6) = 8

xy = 8 or y =

Example 2: If y varies inversely as x, and the constant of variation is k = , what is y when x = 10?

xy =

10y =

y = × = × =

k is constant. Thus, given any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) which satisfy the inverse variation, x1y1 = k and x2y2 = k. Consequently, x1y1 = x2y2 for any two points that satisfy the inverse variation.

Example 3: If y varies inversely as x, and y = 10 when x = 6, then what is y when x = 15?

x1y1 = x2y2

6(10) = 15y

60 = 15y

y = 4

Thus, when x = 6, y = 4.

Answer 2

Answer:

9.09%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since xy=k (k is constant)

Let x=100

xy= constant k

100 x y=100y

x increased by 10% so,

110 x decreased y =100y

decreased y = 100y/110=10y/11

% Change:-

Decrease = y-10y/11

                = y/11

Decrease%= Decrease/Original value of y x 100%

                  =y/11 / y x 100%

                  =100%/11

                  =9.09%
