Z Varies Jointly as X and Y. If Z=3 When X=3 and Y=15, Find Z When X=6 and Y=9
Varies Jointly Means There Exists a Constant K Such That: Z = kxyWe're Given Z = 3 When X = 3 and Y = 15, So We Have:3 = 15 * 3 * K3 = 45Kusing Our Equation...
Varies jointly means there exists a constant k such that:
z = kxy
We're given z = 3 when x = 3 and y = 15, so we have:
3 = 15 * 3 * k
3 = 45k
Using our equation solver, we see that:
k = 1/15
So our joint variation equation is:
z = xy/15
Then we're asked to find z when x = 6 and y = 9
z = 6 * 9 / 15
z = 54/15
z = 18/5
