how do I work this out, I've tried
[tex] \frac{6}{4} = \frac{k \times - 4}{ - 4} [/tex]
and that gave me
[tex] \frac{1}{ - 1.5} x[/tex]

Answer:

The required answer is [tex]y=-\mathbf{\frac{3}{2}}x\\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that value of x and y vary directly so , if two values vary directly we can write

y∝x

y=kx

Now, we are given x=-4 and y=6 and we have to fill in the blank. We actually have to find value of k i.e y=____x . Yhe blanks must be filled by value of k because y=kx

Using values of x and y i.e x=-4 and y=6 to find value of k

[tex]y=kx\\6=k(-4)\\Divide \ both \ sides \ with \ -4\\\frac{6}{-4}= \frac{k(-4)}{-4} \\k=\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]

The value of k is [tex]\mathbf{\frac{-3}{2}}[/tex]

So, the required answer is [tex]y=-\mathbf{\frac{3}{2}}x\\[/tex]
