Answer:

The Correct option is C ) 25

Therefore the value of x is 25 when y =40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Variable 'y' is directly proportional to the variable 'x'.

\therefore y=kx     ......Direct Variation

Where,

k = Constant of proportionality

To Find:

value of x = ? when y = 40

Solution:

First we need to find Constant of proportionality

When x = 20 and y = 32

Substituting the values we get

32=k\times 20\\k=\dfrac{32}{20}=1.6\\\\k=1.6

Now when k =1.6 , y = 40 then x will be

40=1.6\times x\\\\x=\dfrac{40}{1.6}=25\\\\x=25

Therefore the value of x is 25 when y =40.

Seven more than the product of a number and <br> 8<br> is equal to <br> 5
yuradex [85]
8x + 7 = 5

A "product" is the result of a multiplication operation.  So the product of a number, ( which we will call x,) and 8 would be 8x. (Or 8*"x" number) 7 more than that product would be 8x + 7 = 5

Hope that this helps!
