Answer:
[tex]y=-30[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given
y varies directly as x
so, we can write equation as
[tex]y=kx[/tex]
where
k is constant of proportionality
We have
at x=-1 , y=6
so, we can use it to find k
[tex]6=k(-1)[/tex]
so, we get
[tex]k=-6[/tex]
now, we can plug it back
[tex]y=-6x[/tex]
now, we can plug x=5
and we get
[tex]y=-6\times 5[/tex]
[tex]y=-30[/tex]
