    \[x\] varies directly as y and \[x\] varies inversely as the square of z, when \[y=75\] and \[x=6,\] then \[z=5\]. Find the value of x when \[y=24\] and \[z=4\].

    A)  1

    B)  2

    C)  3

    D)  4

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[x\propto y\]  and \[x\propto \frac{1}{{{z}^{2}}}\] \[x\propto \frac{y}{{{z}^{2}}}\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,x=k\frac{y}{{{z}^{2}}}\] \[6=k\times \frac{75}{{{(5)}^{2}}}\Rightarrow \,k=2\] Again, \[x=2\times \frac{24}{{{(4)}^{2}}}\,\Rightarrow \,x=3\]
