Answer

Equation: y=5x y=50 when x=10

Work Step by Step

Since we know that y-varies directly with x, we can plug in the values for y and x and solve for k 5=k(1) (Divide both sides by 1) 5=k So plug k in for the general form of a direct variation (y=kx): y=5x Now in order to find the value of y when x=10, plug this value of x into the equation above: y=5(10) y=50
