Answer:
y = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
given y is directly proportional to then the equation relating them is
y = k ← k is the constant of proportion
to find k use the condition y = 75 , x = 100 , then
75 = k = 10k ( divide both sides by 10 )
7.5 = k
y = 7.5 ← equation of proportion
You could start by noticing
so you don't have to worry about the decimal point anymore. Then carry out the division as usual.
172*24 = 4128
so we have
4172 = 4128 + 44 = 172*24 + 44
