-c
No , he needed to apply the exponents to all factors in the product in the second step .
As the variation is direct we have:

We must find the value of k.
For this, we use the following data:
y = 200 when x = 5
Substituting values we have:

Clearing k:

Then, the function is:

We evaluate the function for x = -3
Answer:
the value of y when x = -3 is:
c.
72
I believe it’s the first one. i’m very sorry if it’s wrong
100 cm is the correct answer i am pretty sure
