Question

The variables y and x have a proportional relationship, and y = 7 when x = 2.

What is the value of y when x = 5?

Enter your answer as a decimal in the box.

y = ___

Answer 1

17.5

Explanation:

x=2

y=7

when y by x, then multiple y by 5.

7/2= 3.5

3.5×5= 17.5

you can also do 7x2 which would give you 14 and then divide 7 by 2 to get 3.5, and add the two together, so 14+3.5=17.
