Great, ill help.

Plugging in our initial statement values of x = 12 when x = 8, we get: 12 = 8k Divide each side by 8 to solve for k: 12 8 = 8k 8 k = 1.5 Solve the second part of the variation equation: Because we have found our relationship constant k = 1.5, we form our new variation equation: x = 1.5x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since we were given that x = 8, we have x = 1.5(8)

Solve that to get your answer :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B was wrong... It was D.
