The variable Z is directly proportional to X, and inversely proportional to Y. When X is 3 and Y is 14, Z has the value 3.8571428571429.


What is the value of Z when X = 12, and Y = 23

Verified Answer :

To
determine the z in this proportional equation. We used first understand the
formula and equation by understanding the relationships between z, x and y then
we apply the values or numbers and undergo the process of finding the asked
unknown value.


1.
Since z is directly proportional to x and
inversely proportional with Y. we have the equation set as: Z = X / Y


2.
Hence if the given values of X = 12, and Y = 23. Then apply the
values in the formula we have:


a.
Z
= X / Y


b.
Z
= 12 / 23


c.
Z
= 0.522
