Variation Constant: k = 7/6
y = 245/6 when x = 7 and z = 5
====================================
Explanation:
"y varies jointly as x and z" means that y = kxz
We have (x,y,z) = (4,14,3) as one triple, so,
y = kxz
14 = k*4*3
14 = 12k
12k = 14
k = 14/12
k = 7/6 is the variation constant
The equation goes from y = kxz to y = (7/6)xz
----------------
Plug in x = 7 and z = 5 to find y
y = (7/6)xz
y = (7/6)*7*5
y = (7/6)*(7/1)*(5/1)
y = (7*7*5)/(6*1*1)
y = 245/6
If (x-24)0.25 = 4, distribute 0.25 within the parenthesis.
0.25x - 6 = 4
0.25x = 10
Divide both sides by 0.25
x = 40
