Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that x and y vary directly then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition x = 25 when y = 100 , then
100 = 25k ( divide both sides by 25 )
4 = k
y = 4x ← equation of variation
When y = 24 , then
24 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )
6 = x
