Step-by-step solution

Here's the solution to your direct variation problem.

1) V varies directly as I. When V=10V=10, I=5I=5, find II when V=100V=100.

  1. Write the direct variation relationship.

    If VV varies directly as II, then V=kIV = kI, where kk is the constant of proportionality.

  2. Use the given values (V=10V=10, I=5I=5) to find the constant kk.

    10=k⋅510 = k \cdot 5

    Divide both sides by 5:

    k=105k = \frac{10}{5} k=2k = 2
  3. Now that we have k=2k=2, the relationship is V=2IV = 2I.

    Use this to find II when V=100V=100.

    100=2I100 = 2I

    Divide both sides by 2:

    I=1002I = \frac{100}{2} I=50I = 50
