y x, and y = 45 when
z = 6
Solve for y when x = 6,z = 10
Joint variation equation:
Varies jointly means y = kxz where k is a constant
Plug in y = 45 when z = 6 and x = 1/2
45 = (6)(1/2)k
45 = 6k
Divide each side by 6
k = 7.5
Solve the second part of the variation
With k = 7.5, we form our new variation equation:
y = 7.5xz
Given that x = 6,z = 10
Since we were given that x = 6,z = 10, we have
y = 7.5 * 6 * 10
y = 450
