Question 4
VariationIf p ∝ 1/q, which of the following is true?
- A.q ∝ p2
- B.q ∝ 1/p2
- C.q ∝ √p
- D.q ∝ 1/p
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: D (q ∝ 1/p)
Explanation
p = k/q means pq = k, so q = k/p: q varies inversely as p.
If p ∝ 1/q, which of the following is true?
Answer: D (q ∝ 1/p)
p = k/q means pq = k, so q = k/p: q varies inversely as p.
