The value of y is directly proportional to the value of x. If y=2/3 whenx=1/12 , what is the value of y when x = 1/2 ?

Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is directly proportional to X" can be rewritten as a mathematical expression of the form Y = KX

"K" is the constant of proportionality and must be determined from the initial information.

If Y = 2/3 when X=1/12means 2/3=1/12

K = 2/3÷1/12 = 8

Now that we know the value of K, we can use it to calculate the value of Y when X=1/2

Y = (8)(1/2) = 8/2=4

Y=4
