let


h = the height of a t.v screen that is 90 centimeters wide


The height of a wide screen t.v screen varies directly with its width.a t.v screen that is 60 centimeters wide and 33.75 centimeters high:


60 = 33.75*k, where k is constant


k = 60/33.75


also we have 90 = h*k follows k = 90/h


by solving the equation:


60/33.75 = 90/h


we find:


h = 50.625 cm
