Answer:

a. The graph has a constant of variation of 3, so it represents a direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph and we are asked to find whether our given graph represents direct variation or not.

Since we know that a direct variation is an equation in slope-intercept form, which passes through origin (0,0) and constant of variation equals to the slope of the line.

Direct variation equation is in form: y=kx, where k= constant of variation.

Slope intercept equation of line is in form: y=mx+b, where m= slope and b= y-intercept.            

Let us find equation of our given line in slope-intercept form.

We can see from our given graph that our line passes through the origin, so y-intercept (b) equals zero.

Let us find slope of our given line.      

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

m=\frac{3-0}{1-0}  

m=\frac{3}{1}=3

Upon substituting m=3 and b=0 in slope intercept form of equation we will get: y=3x+0. Upon comparing our line with direct variation equation we can see that k=3, therefore, option a is the correct choice.

Bad White [126]
The total charge for Juan in the parking spot would be $2.25.

Since we know one of those 8 hours is 50 cents, we can multiply .25 by 7 which would give us 1.75. Then we know that the first hour, as stated above, is going to be .50, so we can add that to our total which is 2.25.

Hope this helps!
