"something" varies directly to "something else" means
 "something" = "some value" * "something else"
        y = "some value" * x
        y = (a) x
  y = (n)x
<span><span>y=<span>180</span>, x=n⟹<span><span>180</span>=(a)n
</span></span><span>y=n,x=5⟹<span>n=(a)5
</span></span><span>Thus <span>180</span>=(a)n⟹<span><span>180/</span>n</span>=a
Therefore,
</span><span>n=(a)5⟹n=<span>(<span><span>180/</span>n</span>)</span><span>5

The correct value of 'n' is 30.</span></span></span>

Answer:

The value of n for this relation is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If y varies directly as x, this means that the relation between y and x can be stated as a linear relation of the kind:

y=mx

In the equation, m must be a number, to know exact relation. The two situations that are given can be stated as:

180=m.n

n=m.5

Note that are two unknowns quantities in the equation, m and n. In this particular problem, we must find n. To doing this, we will solve the equation for m:

180=m.n → m =180/n

n=m.5 → m = n/5

As m in both equations must be equal:

m = m  

180/n = n/5

180*5 = n*n

900=n^2 → n = 30

Hi there!

To find an equivalent function for this function, we can just simplify it. 

f(x) = (6)4x

f(x) = 24x
is an equivalent function. 

Hope this helps!
