Downpour17:

What did you get for this?

carlosesgirl:

what do you mean

Downpour17:

Like, an answer

carlosesgirl:

so how do you do number one

Downpour17:

This looks like algebra. Is there anything that may help you with this?

carlosesgirl:

no there isn't and my teacher does not respond to emails at this time

Downpour17:

Understood. I need to find out what this question is asking

carlosesgirl:

So for these we would use proportions to solve what it would be when we plug in the given answers so we could take any but lets use 1 as an example: 1/9.50=2/19.00 5/120=6/100 1/9.50= 0.10526315789, 2/19.00= 0.10526315789 5/120= 0.04166666666, 6/100= 0.06 Definition of Direct Variation: "mathematical relationship between two variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant times the other" So this means, in simpler words, that a thing that can be shown in a equation. So because the 2 examples of the 1st thing (hours worked, pay), were equal it is a direct variation. However because the 2nd one the amounts aren't equal it is not a direct variation. Now for the next examples you have to divide the values to find the equation y=kx: 12= k(3) 12/3 = k 4=k k=4 So the direct variation would be y= 4x. So for the next problems use the formula: y=kx and plug in the values to find the direct variation for each one.
