Campers = y and counselors = x.....1 counselor to 5 campers

y = kx
k = y/x
k = 5/1

y = 5x

lets check..
y = 5x....lets say u have 2 counselors...sub in 2 for x
y = 5(2)
y = 10....so when there is 2 counselors, there are 10 campers

y = 5x...lets say u have 3 counselors...sub in 3 for x
y = 5(3)
y = 15...so when there are 3 counselors, there are 15 campers

2/10 reduces to 1/5
3/15 reduces to 1/5

so yes, this is a direct variation with ur equation being y = 5x

zloy xaker [14]

Answer: 1/(4a^2) + 1/(3a) + 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

= (1/2a + 1/3)(1/2a + 1/3)

= 1/(4a^2) + 1/(6a) + 1/(6a) + 1/9

= 1/(4a^2) + 2/(6a) + 1/9

= 1/(4a^2) + 1/(3a) + 1/9
