Question 298314: I am attempting to solve this problem and would appreciate some help:

Click here to see answer by richwmiller(17219)

Question 298332: I have solved this problem, but I doubt if I did this in the correct manner or even if the problem is correct.
Here is the problem as stated: [(37*8.9)(4-2(3-1))]-5(2/(2-7))(5)= ?
This is my work below:
[(37*8.9)(4-2(3-1))]-5(2/(2-7))(5)= ? (original problem)
1.) 37*8.9 = 329.3 (I start by going left to right - multiplying the first set of parentheses)
2.) (3-1) = 2 (I than remember to always work the inner most part of the problem)
3.) (4-2+2) = 2 (According to my instructor, when it comes to multiplication/division and addition/subtraction, one is able to go from left to right rather than adding or subtracting first. I am not sure if this is correct, but here this is done by his teaching)
4.) (2-7)=-5 (I than move on to the right side of the equal sign)
5.) 2/-5=-0.4 (I than finish what is inside of the parentheses)
6.) 329.3+4-5(-0.4)(5) (This is what I have thus far into the equation)
7.) -5(-0.4)=2
329.3+4+2(5)
8.) 2(5)=10
329.3+4+10
9.) 343.3 (After I combine the last 3 terms)
So... I'm pretty sure that there is something I missed while working the problem. Please help me understand what I might have done wrong. Thanks!

Question 298653: If y varies directly as x, and y = 1/3 when x = 4, write an equation for this relationship:
a. y = (4/3)x
b. y = (1/12)x
c. y = (3/4)x
d. y = 4/3x
Would the answer be b or d ? I am guessing b but I am not sure what the difference is between b and d since they seem to produce the same answer.
