A direct variation suggest that the value of x in the equation would greatly affect the value of y such that when x is increasing, y also increases and the other way around. The equation for a direct variation is that,
y = kx
Substituting the given values in the ordered pair,
5 = k(4) ; k = 5/4
X = 5
AE and congruent to EC
Given:
savings 12% of her salary.
savings $4,200
This year's salary: x + 3,000
Last year's salary: x
4,200 represents 12% of her salary.
4,200 / 12% = 35,000 is her salary this year.
x + 3,000 = 35,000
x = 35,000 - 3,000
x = 32,000 her salary last year.
