Given : y = -25 and x = -5
We can notice that if we Multiply 'x' with 5 we get 'y'
That is (-5) × 5 = -25
⇒ x multiplied by 5 = y
(a) The Equation that relates x and y is 5x = y
(b) We found that the Equation of this Direct variation is : 5x = y
The Question is to find the value of y when x = 3
The Value of y at x = 3 can be found by simply substituting x = 3 in the equation we found.
⇒ y = 5x
⇒ y = 5 × 3
⇒ y = 15
So, the Value of y when x = 3 is 15
-4/5 is the skip of the graph
The ratio of x:y:z = 20:8:11
Total unit = 20+8+11 = 39
Value of 1 unit ratio = 78/39 = 2
So, the water in container X, 20(2) = 40 liters
Your answer is 40 liters
