When j = 32, m = 2, and p = 1/4. If j varies directly with m and inversely with p, The k is the constant of variation that is 4.
What is directly proportional and inversely proportional relationship?
Let there are two variables p and q
Then, p and q are said to be directly proportional to each other if
p = kq
where k is some constant number called the constant of proportionality.
This directly proportional relationship between p and q is written as
[tex]p \propto q[/tex] where that middle sign is the sign of proportionality.
This inversely proportional relationship is denoted by
[tex]m \propto \dfrac{1}{n} \\\\ \text{or} \\\\n \propto \dfrac{1}{m}[/tex]
When j = 32, m = 2, and p = 1/4. If j varies directly with m and inversely with p
j = mk/p
where k is the constant of variation.
32 = 2 x k / (1/4)
Multiply both sides by 1/4.
8 = 2k
Divide both sides by 2.
4 = k
