If y = 3/x, what happens to x when y is doubled?

Sagot :

First, if y varies as the square of x, that means:

y = kx2

where k is the constant of proportionality. When thinking about change, I like to use subscripts to represent before and after. We will use a subscript of 1 to denote before (or the initial value of a variable) and a subscript of 2 to represent after (or the final value of a variable). So, y1 is the initial and y2 is the final. Also, x1 is the initial and x2 is the final. k does not change, so it doesn't get any subscripts. Thus, we can write two equations, because the above equation must hold before and after.

y1 = k(x1)2

y2 = k(x2)2

This is not obvious, but after a few times it becomes natural. We can now eliminate k. An easy way to do that is to divide the second equation by the first to get:

y2 / y1 = (x2)2 / (x1)2

The right hand side of the equation can be written in another form, to get:

y2 / y1 = ( x2 / x1 )2

Okay... so why did I do this? Because we are talking about factors of change, not absolute changes. So, y2/y1 represents the factor change of y and x2/x1 represents the factor change of x. Thus, when the prompt says x is doubled, we can understand that to mean that:

x2/x1 = 2

And we can determine the factor change of y by substituting 2 for the the factor change of x.

y2 / y1 = (2)2 = 4

So, when x is doubled, y is quadrupled. quadrupled when x is doubled.
