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

SOMEONE PLZ HELP ME WITH 10 and 8!!!!!
Allisa [31]

Answer:

10.23.75^{o}

8. 34.76^{o}

Step-by-step explanation:

10. each step is 36, so i added it twice to get 72.

     then add 16 twice = 32

      this gives us two sides to our triangle.

      We can now use tan since we know opp and adj

      tan 32/72 = .44

      arctan = 23.75

8. since we again know the opposite and adjacent sides to the angle e are trying to find we can use tan again.

  tan 12.5/18 = .694

  arctan= 34.76
