Question

Can someone explain to me how to solve this please

Answer 1

The statement "y varies directly as x," means that when x increases, y increases by the same factor. In other words, y and x always have the same ratio: y/x =K

it can be written as ---> y=kx

then put in the values to get a common ratio
k= y/x
k1= 11/7
k2= 13/8

therefore, there's no common ratio in the given table
