Answer:

Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if y varies directly with x, we can express the relationship such as

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called constant of variation.

Given

y = -5

x = 12

Using the equation

k = y/x = -5/12

Thus, the value of k = -5/12

Finding x when y = 15

y = 15

k = -5/12

substituting y = 15 and k = -5/12 in the equation

y = kx

15 = -5/12 (x)

15×12 = -5x

180 = -5x

divding both sides by -5

-5x/-5 = 180/-5

x = -36

Thus, the value of x = -36 when y = 15

7n +9 = -1+6(n+4)<br>can someone walk me through this please?​
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

n = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

7n +9 = -1+6(n+4)

Distribute

7n+9 = -1 +6n+24

Combine like terms

7n +9 = 6n +23

Subtract 6n from each side

7n -6n+9 = 6n-6n +23

n+9 = 23

Subtract 9 from each side

n+9-9=23-9

n = 14
