Given:

y is directly proportional to x.

y=30 when x=5

To find:

The equation that connects y with x.

Solution:

It is given that, y is directly proportional to x. So,

y\propto x

y=kx                     ...(i)

Where, k is the constant of proportionality.

We have, y=30 when x=5. Substituting these values in (i), we get

30=k(5)

Divide both sides by 5.

\dfrac{30}{5}=k

6=k

Substituting k=6 in (i), we get

y=6x  

Therefore, the required equation is y=6x.

45% of 40 is 18% of what number?
alexandr1967 [171]
So 45% OF 40 is 
45% * 40 
0.45 * 40
that is 18

18 is 18% of what number?
18 = 18% * x
18 = 0.18 * x
divide both sides by 0.18
100 = x
45 % of 40, which is 18, and is 18% of 100.

Hope this helps
