The value of y varies directly with x. If y = 64 when x is 16, what is x when y is 288?

5 answers

y varies directly with x:
y = kx
where k is some constant. To find this k, substitute the given x and y:
64 = k(16)
k = 64/16
k = 4
To find x, substitute y = 288 and k = 4:
288 = 4x
Now solve for x.

Hope this helps :3
