Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation can be modeled by y = kx where k is the constant of variation!

So to solve for k all we need to do is substitute in the value for y and x that are given.

So according to the problem y = 24 when x = 6

24 = 6k

Divide both sides by 6

k = 4

So the constant of variation is 4

The direct variation equation would then be

y = 4x

Answer:

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{2y-1}{15} = \frac{y}{10} ( cross- multiply )

10(2y - 1) = 15y ← distribute left side

20y - 10 = 15y ( subtract 15y from both sides )

5y - 10 = 0 ( add 10 to both sides )

5y = 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 2
