What is direct and Inverse proportion? NCERT Class 8 Maths

direct and Inverse proportion


Direct Proportion: Assume that you have added more books to your bag. How will its weight change? and will get bigger. It will, of course, thus we refer to it as a direct ratio. It is possible to use the two measurements x and y, which are thought to be directly proportional. What does that mean, exactly? This implies that the ratio of these two dimensions, x and y, will constantly rise and fall by their corresponding values.

An equation will allow us to comprehend this. If x and y vary directly, then x/y = k, where k is a positive value or a constant
For example, 1 cm is equal to 10 mm.
Here, to convert to cm, the product must be 10.

Now let's talk about inverse proportions. When changing the value of one dimension, x, causes a corresponding reduction in the other, y, and vice versa, the two dimensions, x, are inversely proportional. Examples include the duration and speed of a travel. It is argued that two values are inversely proportionate when one rises and the other falls. Another application of the proportional symbol is possible. Take this as an example: We are aware that adding additional workers to a task can speed up its completion.

This is described as:

Number of workers (1/Duration of the project)

ANS:  The deferred payment is discounted to present value and included in the cost of consideration. At the end of each year, the liability is increased by unwinding the discount, until the payment is settled. For example, An amount of Rs. 108,000 was deferred to be paid after 2 years. The discount rate applicable is 8%. The net present value today of Rs. 108,000 is equal to (108,000 * 1) / (1.08) ^2)= Rs. 92,593 included in purchase consideration. A liability of Rs. 92,59...
