Answer:

8 ohms

Step-by-step explanation:

given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use either of the given conditions

y = 10 when x = 12 or y = 5 when x = 24, hence

k = 10 × 12 = 120

y = \frac{120}{x} ← equation of variation

when x = 15, then

y = \frac{120}{15} = 8
