As y varies directly with x, there is a proportionality constant. As x increases by that certain constant, y also increases. We equate:
y = kx
where k = proportionality constant.
Given the condition, y = 5 when x = 4, then we solve for k:
5 = k(4)
k = 5/4 or 1.25
When y = 8, then
8 = (5/4)(x)
x = 8/(5/4) = (8)(4/5) = 32/5 or 6.4 (ANSWER)
As you can see on the graph, when x=-2, y=-3.
Answer:
-17x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the negative to the second part of the equation. remove the parenthesis from the first part and then add like values.
-4x-2-13x-1
-4x-13x-2-1
-17x-3
