You would put 8 where x is and -10 where y is and then you will do -10 to the second power, which you will get 100 and so you will get 104. The answer is
D) 104
The direct variation between x and y may be written as,
y = kx
where k is the constant of variation. From the first set of values of the variables,
12 = k(8)
the value of k is 1.5. Substituting the next set to the same equation,
y = 1.5(14)
The value of y is 21.

Answer: Choice C</h3>
{x | x < -12 or x > -6}
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's solve the first inequality for x.
(-2/3)x > 8
-2x > 8*3
-2x > 24
x < 24/(-2)
x < -12
The inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative value.
Let's do the same for the second inequality.
(-2/3)x < 4
-2x < 4*3
-2x < 12
x > 12/(-2)
x > -6
The conclusion of each section is that x < -12 or x > -6 which points us to <u>choice C</u> as the final answer.
Side note: The intervals x < -12 and x > -6 do not overlap in any way. There's a gap between the two pieces. We consider these intervals to be disjoint. The number line graph is below.
