Answer:
y = 6 when x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The appropriate formula for this direct proportion is y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.
We know y = 3 when x = 9: 3 = k(9)
This yields k = 3/9, or k = 1/3
Then the formula is y = (1/3)x
and when x = 18, y = (1/3)(18) = 6
y = 6 when x = 18
Answer:
first y then x because y represents 22 and x represents 4 a week.
1 of 10 is equivalent to 10% because 1/10 is .10 and .10•100% is 10% so the newspapers advertising is higher
0.2 is the same as 2/10
18/(2/10)
As you may have learned in school, when you divide a fraction, you flip the fraction in the denominator, and change it to multiplication
18/(2/10) becomes 18 x (10/2)
multiply normally
18 x 10 = 180
divide to find answer
180/2 = 90
90 is your answer
hope this helps
Remember, when you meet this problem, flip the second fraction, and change the division sign into multiplication. (always second, never first (if first is a fraction)).
