Solution

The correct option is D m = 16l = 2n = 4
Given,
x and y are inversly related.
x1x2 = y2y1

(i)
Let,
x1 = 8
y1 = 8
x2 = 4
y2 = m
8 × 8 = 4 × m
m = 644 = 16

(ii)
Let,
x1 = 8
y1 = 8
x2 = l
y2 = 32
8 × 8 = l × 32
l = 6432 = 2

(iii)
Let,
x1 = 8
y1 = 8
x2 = 16
y2 = n
8 × 8 = 16 × n
l = 6416 = 4
