We can set up a proportion to solve for the value of x when y = 36:
y/x = 25/140
Cross multiplying, we get:
25x = 140 * y
Plugging in y = 36, we get:
25x = 140 * 36
Simplifying, we get:
25x = 5040
Dividing both sides by 25, we get:
x = 201.6
Therefore, the value of x when y = 36 is approximately 201.6.
Suppose y varies directly with x, and y =25 when x = 140. What is the value of x when y = 36?
