Answer:
[tex]T = 3.54[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Direct Variation of T to [tex]\sqrt d[/tex]
[tex]d =6;\ when\ T = 5[/tex]
Required
Determine T when d = 3
The variation can be represented as:
[tex]T\ \alpha\ \sqrt d[/tex]
Convert to equation
[tex]T = k\sqrt d[/tex]
[tex]d =6;\ when\ T = 5[/tex]; so we have:
[tex]5 = k * \sqrt 6[/tex]
Make k the subject:
[tex]k = \frac{5}{\sqrt 6}[/tex]
To solve for T when d = 3.
Substitute 3 for d and [tex]k = \frac{5}{\sqrt 6}[/tex] in [tex]T = k\sqrt d[/tex]
[tex]T = \frac{5}{\sqrt 6} * \sqrt{3}[/tex]
[tex]T = \frac{5\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt 6}[/tex]
[tex]T = \frac{5 * 1.7321}{2.4495}[/tex]
[tex]T = \frac{8.6605}{2.4495}[/tex]
[tex]T = 3.5356[/tex]
[tex]T = 3.54[/tex] -- approximated
