Plug the -4 into equation
f(-4) = 5(-4) -3
multiply 5•-4= -20
then subtract -20-3
when you have two negatives you add
= -23
y= 2(4)^x should be your answer.
Answer: The value of y is 39.6 when x = 11 and the required expression is y(11) = 39.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
y varies directly as x.
If y = 18, when x = 5.
So, we need to find the value of y when x is 11.
According to question, we get that

Hence, the value of y is 39.6 when x = 11 and the required expression is y(11) = 39.6
For this case we have the following expressions:
70,000,000
7,000,000
If we divide the first expression by the second we have:

Thus, we have that the first expression is 10 times greater than the second expression.
Answer:
70,000,000 is 10 times greater than 7,000,000
