Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 12 when x = - 2, then
k = =
= - 6, thus
y = - 6x ← equation of variation
When y = - 6, then
- 6 = - 6x ( divide both sides by - 6 )
x = 1

Answer:
- 18 baseball cards
- 12 football cards
Step-by-step explanation:
The only relationship shown in the table is in week 1, where the ratio of baseball to football cards is ...
baseball : football = 9 : 6

- 12 football cards

This table came from another question you posted, a question with no content other than the table. The blue numbers are blanks in the original table that have been filled in so as to keep the same 3:2 proportion in each week. They appear to have no bearing on this question.
