Question

Write whether the following statement vary directly, vary inversely with each other, or neither of the two.

Simple interest on a given sum and the rate of interest.

Sum

Solution

Simple interest on a given sum and the rate of interest are directly proportional to each other.

E.g. Let P = Rs 1000, R = 10% and T = 1 yr

∴ `SI = (P xx R xx T)/100`

= `(1000 xx 10 xx 1)/100`

= Rs 100

But if P = Rs 1000, R = 20% and T = 1yr

∴ `SI = (P xx R xx T)/100`

= `(1000 xx 20 xx 1)/100`

= Rs 200
