Please help me solve this problem

We are told that "y varies directly with x", so y = k*x for some fixed constant k.

When x = 6, we have y = 5 pair up with it. Use these two x,y values to find k

y = k*x

5 = k*6

5/6 = k

k = 5/6

This means y = k*x turns into y = (5/6)x

Next up, we plug in x = 5 to get...

y = (5/6)*x

y = (5/6)*(5)

y = (5/6)*(5/1)

y = (5*5)/(6*1)

y = 25/6

hope it

step-by-step explanation:

x^(1/6) · x^(1/6) · x^(1/6)   ·x^(1/6) = x^(4/6)   since we add the exponents

4/6 can be simplified to 2/3

the simplified form is x^(2/3)
