Direct variation in mathematics is when two numbers are written in an equation where one of the numbers multiplied by a constant term to equal the other. 

In the table in the equation, we see direct variation.

<u>X</u>    <u>Y
</u>
<u></u>1     7
2     14
3     21
4     28

We can find the constant of the variation by dividing y by x. This constant should remain the same for all terms of x in the table with their corresponding y values.

y/x
7/1=7
14/2=7
21/3=7
28/4=7

As we can see, the values in the table all share a direct variation between x and y with the value 7.

This can be expressed in an equation: y = 7x.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use ratios to solve this problem.

The original dimensions of the photo is

5 in. by 7 in.

This can be written as:

5:7

And the next is 7.5:?

Then you can use ratios to solve this.

5:7=

7.5:?

5*1.5=7.5 so you can multiply the other side by the same thing. 7*1.5=10.5

The width is 10.5 inches.
