If y varies directly as x, and y is 18 when x is 5, which expression can be used to find the value of y when x is 11?

1 answer:

7 0

Y=kx is the direct variation equation
First plug in the x, y values given to find K
18=k(5)
18/5=k
3.6 = k
Use the k and write a new equation.
y=3.6x
Plug in the x value to solve for y.
y = 3.6(11)
y= 39.6

Anika [276]

Answer: 173.26 ft = 173 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

h tree: 76 ft

h man: 6 ft

As we can see on the sketch, they form a right triangle, so:

tan 22 = 76/y ⇒ 0.404 = 76/y ⇒ y = 76*0.404 ⇒ y = 188.11 ft

tan 22 = 6/x ⇒ 0.404 = 6/x ⇒ x = 6*0.404 ⇒ x = 14.85 ft

distance between the man and the tree = y - x = 188.11 - 14.85 = 173.26 ft
