Answer:

y = 679.952

Explanation:

It is given that, the value of y varies directly with x.

y₁ = 85, x₁ = 14

$y\propto x\\\\y=kx\\\\k=(y)/(x)\\\\k=(85)/(14)\\\\k=6.071$

We need to find the value of y when x is 112.

$y=k* x\\\\=6.071* 112\\\\y=679.952$

So, the value of y is 679.952 when x is 112.
