Answer 2

SOLUTION

GIVEN

x varies directly as y, when x = 5, y = 30.

TO DETERMINE

The constant of variation.

EVALUATION

Here it is given that x varies directly as y

$\sf \therefore \: \: x \propto y$

⇒ x = ky [ where k is constant of variation ]

Now it is given that when x = 5, y = 30.

Thus we have

5 = k × 30

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies k = \frac{5}{30} }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies k = \frac{1}{6} }$

FINAL ANSWER

The constant of variation $\displaystyle \sf{ = \frac{1}{6} }$
