y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.
We need to find k as our first step.
35 = k140
35/140 = k
1/4 = k
We can now find y when x = 70.
y = kx
y = (1/4)(70)
y = 70/4
This fraction can be simplified or reduced more.
The number 2 is the GCF of 70 and 4.
70 ÷ 2 = 35
4 ÷ 2 = 2
Answer:
y = 35/2
