    Y is going to triple (y1=3y)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    y=5/x;

    x triples means y1=5 / (3x);

    Y1 divided by y, we get (5/x) / (5/3x) = (5/x) * (3x/5) = 3

    The value of y becomes 1/3 of the original.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    y = 5/x

    The value of x tripling is same as dividing both sides by 3.

    y/3 = (5/x) / 3

    y/3 = 5/3x

    1/3y = 5/3x

    Let's check.

    Put x as 10 in the original equation.

    5 / (10)

    1/2

    Put x as 10 in the new equation.

    5/3 (10)

    5/30

    1/6

    1/6 is one-third of 1/2.

    1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6
