Answer:

thus, the ratios 8 : 16 and 6 : 12 are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

8 : 16 and 6: 12

8 : 16 = 1/2

6: 12= 1/2

Thus, the ratios 8 : 16 and 6 : 12 are equal

In a certain function, y varies directly with x. If y = 6 when x = 8, find x when y = 9.

Hatshy [7]

If y = 6 when x = 8, then value of "x" when y = 9 is equal to 12

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that , In a certain function, y varies directly with x

And x = 8 when y = 6,

We have to find what will be the value of x when y = 9

Now, from the given information,

$\begin{array}{l}{y \alpha x} \\\\ {y=c x \rightarrow(1)}\end{array}$

where c is the proportionality constant

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Now, substitute } x=8 \text { and } y=6 \text { in }(1)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 8=c(6) \rightarrow c=\frac{8}{6}} \\\\ {\rightarrow c=\frac{4}{3}} \\\\ {\text { Then, }(1) \rightarrow x=\frac{4}{3} y} \\\\ {\text { So, when } y=9} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=\frac{4}{3}(9)} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=4 \times 3} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=12}\end{array}$
