From the table, y varies directly as x. Therefore, the constant of variation is k = 2 and y = 2x.

<h3>How to find a direct variation?</h3>

For direct variation,

y ∝ x

Therefore,

y = kx

where

k = constant of proportionality

Hence,

(-2, -4)

-4 = -2k

k = -4 / -2

k = 2

(-4, -8)

y = -4(2) = -8

Therefore,

k = 2 and y = 2x

Two integers, a and b, have a product of 24. What is the least possible sum of a and b?

rjkz [21]

The least possible sum is 10.

The pairs of factors for 24 are (1,24), (2,12), (3,8), (4,6) with sums 25, 14, 11, 10. So the numbers are 4 and 6.

Which equation can be used to solve the following word problem? Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, and the total value of his c

9966 [12]

Answer:

Seth has 21 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of nickels. Since Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, then (n-8) is the number dimes.

Nickel is worth 5 cents and dime is worth 10 cents. Thus, n nickels are worth 5n cents and (n-8) dimes are worth 10(n-8) cents. The total value of Seth's coins is $2.35 that is 235 cents, then

$5n+10(n-8)=235.$

Solve this equation:

$5n+10n-80=235,\\ \\15n=235+80,\\ \\15n=315,\\ \\n=21.$

The standard deviation<u> </u><u>INCREASES</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation is used to show how the points of the data deviate from the mean. The formulae for deriving standard deviation is attached. As seen from the formulae, the greater the variance of the data from the mean, the higher the Standard Deviation.

The mean of the given data points is $103.4. $450 is way off from this mean meaning that there is a large variance in this data point.
