Direct variation means that changes in x will result to changes in y. If x increase, y also increases and vice versa.

y = kx
k = y / x

y = 45 ; x = 40

k = 45/40 
k = 1.125

y = 1.125x 

y will increase by 1.125 interval of x.

Answer:

an equation that relates x and y :

y = 1.125x

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct variation says that:

y \propto x

then equation is of the form:

y = kx where k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

The variables x and y vary directly.

then by definition we have;

y = kx                .....[1]

Given that: y = 45 and x = 40

Substitute these in [1] to solve for k;

45=40k

Divide both sides by 40 we have;

1.125 = k

Therefore, an equation that relates x and y :

y = 1.125x

A savings account earns 6% simple interest per year. The principal is $800. What is the balance after 18 months?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

$872

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest = Principle * Rate * Time / 100

= ( 800 * 6 * 18/12 ) / 100

= $ 72

The balance after 18 months = principle + interest

= 800 + 72

= $ 872

bija089 [108]
Yes he is correct because if you do the algorithm, 0+3=3 and 20+40=60 and 60+3=63. There is no regrouping needed.
