Answer:

The value of x is 5.

Explanation:

An inverse variation is a relationship between two variables in which as the value of one increases, the value of the other decreases.

Thus,

x \alpha \frac{1}{y}

⇒ x = \frac{k}{y}

where k is the constant of proportionality.

Given that: x = 25, y = 3, then;

25 = \frac{k}{3}

k = 3 x 25

  = 75

The constant of variation is 75.

The value of x when y = 15 can be determined as;

x = \frac{75}{15}

  = 5

The value of x when k = 75 and y = 15 is 5.

Trade in the Vedic Age led to
Tems11 [23]
Yes, it did. : DIn the 11th century BCE, as Rig Veda took its final form, the Vedic society transitioned from semi-nomadic life to settled agriculture. This transition led to increased competition and conflicts over resources such as land and water. The Gangetic plains had remained out of bounds to the Vedic tribes because of thick forest cover. However, after 1000 BCE, the use of iron axes and plows became widespread and the jungles could be cleared with ease. This enabled the Vedic Aryans to extend their kingdoms along the Gangetic plains <span>and ushered the later Vedic age. hope this helps</span>

Which of the 4 MAIN causes of World War 1 most preserved the balance of power among European countries?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The European balance of power referred to international relations between European countries during the First World War, which evolved into the present states of Europe. The Nineteenth Century political concept emerged at the Peace of Paris in 1815. It is often known by the term European State System. Its basic tenet is that no single European power should be allowed to achieve hegemony over a substantial part of the continent and that this is best curtailed by having a small number of ever-changing alliances contend for power.
