If y varies directly with x, and y = 35 when x = 14, then which is the value of y when x = 16

Hello!

First you have to find what you do to x to get y

To do this you divide the y value by the x value

35 / 14 = 2.5

This means they multiplied x by 2.5 to get y

Do this to the new x value to get y

16 * 2.5 = 40

The answer is 40

Hope this helps!
