Question

If the relationship is proportional, what is the missing value from the table? x y 8 6 16 ? 24 18 8 9 12 14

Answer 1

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The missing value is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In a proportional relationship the ratios of the two variables are equivalent. That is, if one variable doubles, the other will double in the same way. Using the values:

X 8 16 24

Y 6 ? 18

When X is doubled from 8 to 16, 6 must be doubled from 6 to 12

When X is 3 times 8 = 24, Y is 3 times 6 = 18

Thus, the missing value is 12
