The ordered pairs (8,12), (16, 24), (x, 21), (26, y ) represent a proportional relationship. Find the value of x and the value of y.

12/8 = 1.5
24/16 = 1.5
So we have our proportion; y/x = 1.5 or 3/2

For (x, 21), we have:
21/x = 3/2

Type this proportion into our search engine and we get:
x = 14

For (26, y), we have:
y/26 = 3/2

Type this proportion into our search engine and we get;
y = 39
