The value of y is directly proportional to the value of x. If y = 35 when X = 140, what is the value of y whenx=70?

17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

soln:

given,

since, x and y are directly proportional

and x=140, y=35

dividing x by y we get,

x/y=140/35

or,x/y=4/1

or,x=4y

when x=70,

x=4y

or,70=4y

•°•y=17.5

answer: i wpould go with c

step-by-step explanation:

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
