Question 14
If two quantities p and q vary inversely with each other, then
(a) pq remains constant
(b) (p+q) remains constant
(c) (p×q) remains constant
(d) (p−q) remains constant
If two quantities p and q vary inversely with each other, then p×q remains constant. Since, in inverse proportion, an increase in p cause a proportional decrease in q and vice-versa.
Hence, option (c) is correct.
