Question

y∝√x If y=60 when x=36 find, y when x=16

Answer 1

Answer:

y= 40

Step-by-step explanation:

$y \alpha \sqrt{x}$

Therefore,

• y=n*square root x. ----> 1

Given that when y=60 x=36,

From that, On applying in 1,

60=n*(36)^1/2

60=n*6

60/6 = n

10 = n ------> 2

Now, In question : y=? When x= 16

WKT,

y=n*square root of x

y=10*(16)^1/2 (frm 2)

y=10 *4

y=40
