Here, x and y have a proportional relationship.So, we can write this as –
x ∝ y
↠ x = cy (c = constant). . . Eq(1)
Now, we are given x =3 and y = 6. We have to find out the value of c so just substitute the values of x and y into Eq(1).
↠ 3 = c × 6
↠ c = 3/6
↠ c = 1/2
- Therefore, value of c is 1/2.
Substituting value of c in Eq(1)–
↠ x = 1/2 y
or, y = 2x.
Answer:
x = 1/2y .
Step-by-step explanation:
Here it is given that ,
- x and y have a proportional relationship. Since it's not mentioned whether it is direct or indirect I am assuming it to be direct .
We can write this mathematically as,
[tex]\longrightarrow x \propto y [/tex]
If we assume k to be constant , then ,
[tex]\longrightarrow x = ky \ ..... (i)[/tex]
Again when y = 6 , the value of x is 3 , so that;
[tex]\longrightarrow 3 = k(6) [/tex]
Divide both sides by 6 ,
[tex]\longrightarrow \dfrac{3}{6}=k [/tex]
Simplify ,
[tex]\longrightarrow k =\dfrac{1}{2} [/tex]
Now substitute the value of k in equation (i),
[tex]\longrightarrow\underline{\underline{ x =\dfrac{1}{2}y}}[/tex]
This is the required answer!
