Question

Given the proportional equation y = -5x, what is the value of y when x = 6

Answer 1

-30

Explanation:

given,

y = -5x

x = 6

Now,

y = -5x

or, y = -5(6)

therefore, y = -30

Answer 2

When x = 6, the value of y is:

y = -5x

y = -5(6)

y = -30

Therefore, when x = 6, y is equal to -30.
