If y varies directly as x and y=3 when x=2 find y when x=8

y = 12 when x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of direct variation, and the pertinent equation is y = kx.

Substituting 2 for x and 3 for y, we get:  3 = 2k.  Then k = 3/2  is the constant of proportionality.

Then y = (3/2)x.

When x = 8, y = (3/2)(8) = 12
