That would be 140
10% is basically the same thing as 1/10. So if you want to find the answer, do the opposite of 1/10, which is 10.
That way, you can get 14 * 10 = 140
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
We have y ∝ x which is another way of saying y varies directly with x
We can rewrite the direct proportion relation y ∝ x as y = k.x where k is a constant - the constant of proportionality
So y = kx or x = y/k
using y and x values know, we can solve for k and then solve for any x given y
We have
y = 37.4 = k (17)
Therefore k = (37.4/17) = 2.2
To find x given y = 13.2, use the second equation
x = y/k = 13.2 / 2.2 = 6
