Answer:
I. k = -8
II. y = -96
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the mathematical expression and data;
y = 24
x = -3
y = kx (y varies directly as x).
To find the constant of proportionality k;
y = kx
Substituting the values into the expression, we have;
24 = k(-3)
24 = -3k
k = -24/3
k = -8
Next, to find the value of y when x = 12
y = kx
Substituting the values, we have;
y = -8 * 12
y = -96
