Answer:
Expression: Y = -10/3 X
Y = 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If Y varies directly as X, then;
Y∝X
Y = kX
k is the constant of variation
If Y = 10 and X = -3
10 = -3k
k = -10/3
Substitute k = -10/3 into the expression Y = kX
Y = -10/3 X
This gives the required expression
To get the value of Y when X = -1
Recall that Y = kX
Y = -10/3 (-1)
Y = 10/3
Hence the value of Y is 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:
Don't know sorry
3 yrs ago:
Alice - x
Jane - 3x
Fast forward 2 years... 1 year ago:
Sum of their ages = 62
Equation to solve: x + 3x = 62
4x = 62
----- -----
4 4
x = 15.5
From this, we can deterime that Alice is 15 1/2 years old.
Then, plug in 15.5 for x in 3x to find Jane's age.
15.5 × 3 = 46.5
From this, we can determine that Jane is 46 1/2 years old.
I hope this helps you to understand this problem better.
