Suppose y varies directly with x. If y = –4 when x = 8, what is the equation of direct variation? Complete the steps to write the equation of direct variation.

Start with the equation of direct variation y = kx.
Substitute in the given values for x and y to get
.
Solve for k to get
.
Write the direct variation equation with the value found for k. The equation is
.

the answer i believe is 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

45.36 feet per second.

step-by-step explanation:

to find the most accurate determination for the number of feet per second tyrone traveled on his way to work let us convert miles to feet and minutes to seconds.

1 mile = 5280 feet.

1 minute = 60 seconds.

now we will divide 158400 by 3492 to find the most accurate determination for the number of feet per second tyrone traveled on his way to work.

therefore, tyrone traveled on his way to work at the rate of 45.36 feet per second.
