The answer is D) No; Y doesn't vary directly with x.
Step-by-step explanation:
It isn't A because:
y=2x:
2(2)=4=y Not true, 2(4)=8=y Not true, 2(6)=12=y Not true
It isn't B:
y=5x
5(2)= 10=y True, 5(4)=20=y Not true, 5(6)=30=y Not true
It isn't C:
y=7x
7(2)=14=y Not true, 7(4)=28=y Not true, 7(6)=42=y Not true

<span>At a corner gas station, the revenue R varies directly with the number g of gallons of gasoline sold. If the revenue is $44.50 when the number of gallons sold is 10, find a linear equation that relates revenue R to the number g of gallons of gasoline. Then find the revenue R when the number of gallons of gasoline sold is 15.5.
Solution:
As the question mentioned the direct relationship between the quantities, hence
10 gallons of gasoline sold = $44.50
15.5 gallons of gasoline sold = $x
by cross multiplication, we get that
10x = 15.5 * 44.50
which implies that
x = 68.975
Thus by $</span>68.975 revenue is obtained by selling 15.5 gallons of gasoline.
