in an equation y varies directly as x varies. if y = 55 when x = 22, what is the value of x when y = 85?

x=34

Step-by-step explanation:

If you put Y and X into a ratio then it will be

5:2

because since their GCF is 11, then we will have to divide both of the numbers by 11.

If y=85 then that means that it was multiplied by 17. If we want them to stay within the same ratio, then we will have to multiply X (2) by 17.

That will get you 34.

hi,

6x times 4 is 24x and 5 times 4 is 20, so the answer is 24x+20.

hope this and for a little humor i am groot.

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
