Question:

If x = 15 and y = 1/30, then x and y are:

Options:

Directly proportional

Inversely proportional

Neither directly nor inversely proportional

Cannot be determined

Correct Answer:

Inversely proportional

Explanation:

x = 15, y = 1/30
1/30 = 1/(2 × 15)
y = 1/2x
Hence, y ∝ 1/x, where 1/2 is the proportionality constant.
