Question

picture is shown above
suppose that y varies directly with x, and y=12 when x=15​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is directly proportional to x,

we have y = kx, where k is a real constant.

When x = 15, y = 12.

=> (12) = k(15), k = 0.8.

Therefore we have y = 0.8x.

When x = 2, y = 0.8(2) = 1.6.

The answer is y = 1.6 when x = 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

y is directly proportional to x

y=kx, where k is a constant

Now, y=12 when x=15

$12 = k \times 15 \\ k = \frac{12}{15} \\ \boxed{k = 0.8}$

When x=2,

$y = 0.8 \times 2 \\ \boxed{y = 1.6}$

Equation: y=kx

y: 1.6
