Given:

The variable y varies directly as x and inversely as z. When x = 4 and z= 14, y=2.

To find:

The combined variation equation and find y when x = 6 and z= 3.

Solution:

The variable y varies directly as x and inversely as z.

y\propto \dfrac{x}{z}

y=k\dfrac{x}{z}           ...(i)

Where, k is the constant of proportionality.

Putting x=4, y=2 and z=14, we get

2=k\dfrac{4}{14}

2=k\dfrac{2}{7}

2\times \dfrac{7}{2}=k\dfrac{2}{7}\times \dfrac{7}{2}

7=k

Putting k=7 in (i), we get

y=7\dfrac{x}{z}

Putting x=6 and z=3, we get

y=7\times \dfrac{6}{3}

y=7\times 2

y=14

Therefore, the required equation is y=7\dfrac{x}{z} and the value of y is 14 when x = 6 and z= 3.

If the sum of $1! + 2! + 3! + \cdots + 49! + 50!$ is divided by $15$, what is the remainder?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

All factorials 5 and above are evenly divisible by 15, so have no remainder. Thus, you are interested in ...

  mod(1! +2! +3! +4!, 15) = mod(1 +2 +6 +24, 15)

  = mod(33, 15) = 3

The remainder is 3.
