Given:-

suppose y varies directly with x and y=-20 when x=-1.

To find:-

what direction variation equation relates to x and y what is the value of y when x=-10.

y varies directly with x that means y is directly propotional to x.

[tex]y=kx[/tex]

Value of y=-20 when x=-1, so substituting we get,

[tex]\begin{gathered} -20=k\times-1 \\ 20=k \end{gathered}[/tex]

So the value of k is 20.

So the direct equation is,

[tex]y=20x[/tex]

Now we find the value of y when x=-10,

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=20\times-10 \\ y=-200 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So the value of y is -200.
