I realize that the answer is listed in terms of x, but if y varies directly with x then y = kx.If I understood the question correctly, then the equation has the general form of y=kx.
When x=5 and y = 35, you have 35=k5. Can you solve for k? After that, you can plug in k and x=22 in the general form and solve for y.
For some reason, I skipped the word "directly" entirely. Thanks.I realize that the answer is listed in terms of x, but if y varies directly with x then y = kx.

So, why is x there, and what equation is it saying to solve?I realize that the answer is listed in terms of x, but if y varies directly with x then y = kx.

Wdym? I don’t think it lacks anything.So, why is x there, and what equation is it saying to solve?
I think the question is defective, or at least misleading.
By definition if y varies directly with x then y = kx, not y=kx. That's what is lacking.Wdym? I don’t think it lacks anything.

Okay then.By definition if y varies directly with x then y = kx, not y=kx. That's what is lacking.

Yeah. My math quizzes always have mistaken in dem.To be crystal clear, there is a typo in the problem and where it says sqrt(x) it should just be x.
