Question

Given y varies directly as x, use the given x-value and y-value to find an equation that relates x and y. x = 24 and y = 360 A) y = 15x B) x = 15xy C) y = .15x D) y = 15 x

Answer 1

Answer: A

Explanation:

Answer 2

A

Explanation:

given y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the given condition x = 24 and y = 360

k =
`(y)/(x)` =
`(360)/(24)` = 15

Hence y = 15x is the equation → A
