[tex]y \: \alpha \: x[/tex]

Let c be the constant

[tex]y = cx \\ 16 = c4 \\ c = \frac{16}{4} \\ c = 4[/tex]

SO:-

[tex]y = cx \\ y = 4 \times ( - 2) \\ y = ( - 8)[/tex]

Answer:

y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 16 when x = 4 , then

16 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

4 = k

y = 4x ← equation of variation

When x = - 2 , then

y = 4 × - 2 = - 8
