Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = 14 when x = 2. What direct variation equation relates x and y? What is the value of y when x = 6? Explain. Show your work A. The equation y = 2x relates x and y. When x = 6, y =2(6) or 12.
B. The equation y = 14x relates x and y. When x = 6, y =14(6) or 84.
C. The equation y = 7x relates x and y. When x = 6, y =7(6) or 42.

C. The equation y = 7x relates x and y. When x = 6, y =7(6) or 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using direct variation with the formula:

y = kx

Since y =14, when x = 2.

y = kx

14 = 2k

k = 14/2

k = 7

Therefore, y = 7x

The value of y when x = 6 will be:

y = kx

y = 6k

Recall that k = 7

y = 6 × 7

y = 42

Therefore, the equation y = 7x relates x and y. When x = 6, y =7(6) or 42.

the answer is c. 23/3

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
