For the 1st 15/3 = y/12, solve for y For the next ...

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

???????

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

y/(xz), plug in values, equate and solve for y

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

Does this make sense?

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

a little

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

when y changes by 15, x changes by 3, for example if you take 3 steps forward I take 15 steps forward. If you take 12 steps forward, how many steps will I take? That's what 15/3 = y/12 means. So this formula could mean Me/You

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

ok

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

so my answer is 15/3=y/12

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

solve for y

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

that is your answer, but you need to isolate your "y"

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

5=y/12 5*12=y/12*12 y=60

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

what about the next one

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

@phi

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

That's what I got

OpenStudy (jazzyfa30):

ummm so how do i do the next one
