y is inversely proportional to x. y=30 when x=5.
\n" ); document.write( "y = k/x
\n" ); document.write( "30 = k/5
\n" ); document.write( "k = 150
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( " (a) Find the constant of proportionality.
\n" ); document.write( "k = 150
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( " (b) Determine the value of y when x=15.
\n" ); document.write( "y = 150/15
\n" ); document.write( "y = 10
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
