Question 833542: Suppose that y is directly proportional to x.
If y = 6 when x = −1, what is the value of y when x = 10?
(Your answer should be a number.) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Suppose that y is directly proportional to x.
-----
y = k*x
------
Solve for "k" using "If y = 6 when x = −1"
6 = k*-1
k = -6
-------
Equation:
y = -6x
========
What is the value of y when x = 10?
y = -6*10
y = -60
==========
