Oxana [17]

So 20% of $1,080 is 216.

1080 - 216 is 864

8% of 864 is 69.12

864 + 69.12 would be $933.12

Answer

Well first you need to remove parentheses by multiplying factors. Next

use exponent rules to remove parentheses in terms with exponents. Then

combine like terms by adding coefficients. Finally you just

combine the constants.

(a) Find the values of a and b.

(b) Find the constant of variation. Is it direct variation or inverse variation?

Answer:

$a = 10$ and $b = 12$

Constant of variation is 1.5

Direct Variation

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The values of a and b

First, we determine the equation that relates x and y

From the table, we have:

$(x_1,y_1) = (4,6)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (30,45)$

The slope (m) is:

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{45 - 6}{30 -4}$

$m = \frac{39}{26}$

$m = 1.5$

The equation is then calculated using:

$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

This gives:

$y - 6 = 1.5(x - 4)$

$y - 6 = 1.5x - 6$

$y = 1.5x$

Solving for the value of b

From the table: x = 8, y = b

Substitute these values in $y = 1.5x$

$b = 1.5 * 8$

$b = 12$

Solving for the value of a

From the table: x = a, y = 15

Substitute these values in $y = 1.5x$

$15 = 1.5 * a$

Solve for a

$a = \frac{15}{1.5}$

$a = 10$

Solving (b): The constant of variation.

This has been solved in (a) above as:

$m = 1.5$

Direct or Inverse?

From the given table, we notice that y increases as x increases and y decreases as x decreases.

<em>This shows direct variation</em>
