Hi there!

The function doesn't pass through the origin.

Any direct variation function must pass through the origin.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Melissa believes the following graph shows direct variation.

We need to find Melissa’s error.

If a variable y directly proportional to x, the

y\propto x

It can be written as

y=kx

where, k is constant of proportionality.

It is a linear function with slope k and it passes through the origin.

From the given graph it is clear that the function is a straight line, it means the graph is a linear function and the rate change is constant.

But, it does not pass through the origin. So, the given graph does not represent the direct variation.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Change to decimals.<br> 1. 75%
ANEK [815]

Answer: 0.75

Step-by-step explanation: To write a percent as a decimal, first remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100.

So we can think of 75% as the ratio 75 to 100 or 75 ÷ 100.

Dividing by 100 moves the decimal point two places to the left so 75 ÷ 100 will move the decimal point two places to the left which would give us .75 or 0<em>.</em>75.

This means that 75% can be written as the decimal 0<em>.</em>75.
