EXAMPLE #4
The electric resistance of a wire varies directly as its length
and inversely as the square of its diameter. 100m of a wire
with diameter of 6mm has resistance of 12 ohms. 80 meters
of a second wire of the same material has resistance of 15
ohms. Find the diameter of the second wire.
EXAMPLE #5
The number of girls varied directly as the number of boys
and inversely as the number of teachers. When there were
50 girls, there were 20 teachers and 10 boys. How many
boys were there when there were 10 girls and 100 teachers?
