Help me find my answer

Answer:
-34
Step-by-step explanation:
y varies directly as x
That means
[tex]y \infty x \\ y = kx \\ - 51 = 3k \\ k = \frac{ - 51}{3} = - 17[/tex]
To find y when x=2,
[tex]y = kx \\ y = ( - 17)2 \\ y = - 34[/tex]
NB: I could not find the direct proportionality sign, that is why I used the infinity sign
K = proportionality constant
