Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Answer to Problem 21E

14

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The variable y varies jointly as x and z, and inversely as w.

  x1=2y1=−3z1=−3w1=4    x=4    y=?    z=−7    w=−4

Calculation:

The relation for the given condition will be yw=kxz .

Put the values in the given relation and solve to get k as shown below.

  y1w1=kx1z1−3(4)=k(2)(−3)−12=−6kk=−12−6=2

Now, put the value of k, x, w and z in the given relation to evaluate y as shown below.

  y(−4)=2(4)(−7)y=2(4)(−7)−4=14

Thus the value of y is 14.
