suppose y varies directly with x. write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. then find the value of y when y=15 when x=6

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

y varies directly with x so y = kx when y=15 then x = 6 y = kx 15 = 6x k = 15/6 k = 5/2 you're missing some info in your question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats all it says this is ls me but but still helpful

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

you're sure? it doesnt say what x is? the question should be something like "find y when x is ____"

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

nothing like that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it may say 7

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

ahh better y = kx find y when x = 7 y = (5/2)(7) y = 35/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

welcome
