Answer:
y = 4.25x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition y = 34 when x = 8, thus
34 = 8k ( divide both sides by 8 )
k = [tex]\frac{34}{8}[/tex] = 4.25
y = 4.25x ← equation of variation
