The value of y varies directly with x, and when x = 1/4, y = 25. What is the value of y when x is 2 1/3?

213 1/4

14 1/2

233 1/3

1 answer

233 1/3

Since y varies directly with x, we can set up a proportion to solve for the value of y when x is 2 1/3.

(1/4) / 25 = (7/3) / y

Multiplying both sides by y to isolate the variable:

y = 25 * (7/3) / (1/4)
y = 233 1/3

Therefore, the value of y when x is 2 1/3 is 233 1/3.
