The relationship is written as
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+k%2Fy\"$
\n" ); document.write( "We use the info given to find k, then go from there...
\n" ); document.write( " $\"24+=+k%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( "k = 96
\n" ); document.write( "Thus our relationship is
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+96%2Fy\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Now if y = 12
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+96%2F12+=+8\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
