Horses age more rapidly then humans.Suppose that’s the “horse age” and “human age” vary directly, and suppose that a 5 year old horse is equivalent to a 15 year old human. Find the equivalent human age for a horse who has lived 16 years

Respuesta :

Answer:

48 human years.


Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there! :)

We are given that

y varies directly with x

We write this like that:

y=kx

y=15 and 5=x

15=k*5

k=3

y=3x

y=3*16

y=48

So the equivalent human age is 48 years.

Hope this helps!
