Answer: 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Since value of y varies directly with x, we introduce a constant, k which will give:
y = kx
If x = 4, then y = 20 we then calculate the value of k.
y = kx
20 = 4k
k = 20/4
k = 5
We then find the value of x when y = 60. This will be:
y = kx
60 = 5x
x = 60/5
x = 12
The value of x is 12 when y is 60
