Suppose y varies directly with x. Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Then find the value of y when x=12

Mathematics

lidiya [134]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable.

Given that y varies directly with x, if we introduce a constant of proportionality, k, the expression becomes

y = kx

If y = 8 when x = 3, then

8 = 3k

k = 3/8

Therefore, the direct variation equation that relates x and y is

y = 3x/8

When x = 12, then

y = 3 × 12/8

y = 4.5

aniked [119]
The best and most correct answers among the choices provided by the question are:

<span>▢A. -2x+3y=-15
▢B. y=2/3x-5</span>

y = mx + b. where m is the slope<span> of the line and b is the y-</span>intercept<span> of the line, or the y-coordinate of the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. To write an equation in </span>slope-intercept form<span>, given a graph of that equation, pick two points on the line and use them to find the </span>slope<span>.</span>

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
