Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx, where k is a real constant.

When x = 2, y = 7.

=> (7) = k(2), 2k = 7, k = 3.5.

Therefore when x = 16,

y = (3.5)(16) = 56.

The value of y is 56 when x is 16.

The formula for direct variation is y = kx

Using the known x and y solve for k:

7 = k2

Divide both sides by 2:

k =7/2 = 3.5

Now solve for y when x = 16:

y = 3.5(16)

y = 56

I think the answer is 3.5 cause when you divide it 7 go inside and 7 there's nothing you can multiply to get 7

Find the rate of change and initial value. Y=mx+b
tekilochka [14]
Y= 4/5 x + 24
To find the rate of change you find the difference in each of the numbers on the graph. For example, 36-32 is 4. So 28-4 is 24 and that would be the next number down. It would also match x to be 0 because since the rate of change for x was 5, if you subtract 5 from 5 you get 0. So from this we know that the coordinates would be 0,5.
From this info, the slope would be 4/5 and the y intercept or initial value would be 24

If P + Q=16 and<br> P+10=20<br> What Is The Possible Value Of Q?
aleksklad [387]
P + 10 = 20   Subtract 10 from both sides
       P = 10  

Substitute P = 10 into P + Q = 16

 P + Q = 16   Plug in 10 for P
10 + Q = 16   Subtract 10 from both sides
        Q = 6
