Question

The variable x inversely proportional to y. If increase by p%, then by what percent will y decrease?

Answer 1

Answer:

The variable x is inversely proportional to y. xy = k(constant) Since, we know that two quantities x and y are said to be in inverse proportion, if an increase in x cause a proportional decrease in y and vice-a-versa. So, we can say y decreases by p%......... prefer to it!!!!
