Answer:
a. x - cd = 0
b. d = 1 / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
d = 2
c = 7
a.
c is inversely proportional to d,
c ∝ 1 / d
This inversely proportional need to be removed by using a variation / variable.
Let the variable be " x ".
c = x / d
Multiply d on both sides,
cd = x
x = cd
Subtract cd on both sides,
x - cd = 0
Hence, the equation is " x - cd = 0 ".
b.
By using the equation,
x - cd = 0
Add cd on both sides,
x = cd
c = 17, d = 2
x = 17 * 2
x = 34
To find d, when c = 68.
x = cd
34 = 68 * d
Divide 68 on both sides,
34 / 68 = d
1 / 2 = d
d = 1 / 2
