10: Direct and Inverse Variations Class 8 Maths

with Solutions -
  • #2
    If x and y vary directly, find the values of x, y and z:
    Ans : x and y are in direct variation
    ∴ 3/36 = x/60 = y/96 = 10/z
    ⇒ 3/36 = x/60, 3/36 = y/96, 3/36 = 10/z
    x = 3/36 × 60, y = 3/36 × 96
    z = 10 × 36/3
    ⇒ x = 5, y = 8, z = 120
