A direct variation has a constant slope, i.e. (y/x)= constant.
Both of the given two points give a slope of (y/x)=14/2=28/4=7, so the equation of the function is
y/x=7, or simply
y=7x
Answer:
5n-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Because this is an arithmetic progression, there is simply an addend that is being added to every number. Because that is 5, the expression, for now, would be 5n. However, the progression does not start at 0, so we will have to subtract 3, and then it would be 5n - 3. We're still not at the answer; this is because the first term starts at 1, not 0. We will have to account for that, so subtract the coefficient, or 5, from the whole expression. That would be 5n - 8, and that would be the answer.
Answer: 3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution: The sum of probabilities of all the sample points must equal 1. And the probability of getting a head is equal to the probability of getting a tail. Therefore, the probability of each sample point (heads or tails) must be equal to 1/2. Let's repeat the experiment of Example 1, with a die instead of a coin.
