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

First you would have to find the base which would be 9^2 + 9^2= C^2 because of the pythagorean theorem. So the base would equal 12.7. To find the area of a triangle it’s A= h•b / 2. So your answer would be 95.25
