Good evening ,

B. 24

Step-by-step explanation:

y and x have a proportional relationship, and y = 24 when x = 16

then

y÷x = 24÷16 = 1.5

Since y=36 then

36÷x = 1.5

then

x = 36÷1.5 = 24.

The value of x is 24,B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is directly proportional to x so, it is Y∝X. Let y = kx as k is a constant :

y = kx

Let y = 24

x = 16

24 = k(16)

k = 24/16

= 3/2

Therefore, we have got y=(3/2)x. Now, find the value of x given that y = 36 :

36 = (3/2)x

x = 36 / (3/2)

= 36 × (2/3)

= 24
