Answer: y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
the initial statement is
y
∝
1
x
to convert to an equation multiply by k the constant
of variation
⇒
y
=
k
×
1
x
=
k
x
to find k use the given condition
y
=
15
when
x
=
5
y=kx⇒k=y x=15×5=75
equation is

∣
∣
∣22y=75x22∣∣
when x=25 then
y=75 25=3
if B is between C and D, BC= 10 in., and BD=3 in., then CD =2AD
