Answer:

The constant of variation is $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point 1 (1,2)

Point 2 (5,8)

Required

Constant of Variation

Though the graph would have assisted in answering the question; its unavailability doesn't mean the question cannot be solved.

Having said that,

the constant variation can be solved by calculating the gradient of the graph;

The gradient is often represented by m and is calculated as thus

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Where

(x_1, y_1) = (1,2)\\(x_2, y_2) = (5,8)

By substituting values for x1,x2,y1 and y2; the gradient becomes

m = \frac{8 - 2}{5 - 1}

m = \frac{6}{4}

m = \frac{3}{2}

m = 1.50

Hence, the constant of variation is $1.50

5 37/40 as a decimal
Luden [163]
Well 5=5
and 37/40
hmm, try to get that 40 into an nice number that is multiplule of 10
if we divide top and bottom by 4 that would work
( \frac{37}{40})( \frac{ \frac{1}{4} }{ \frac{1}{4} })= \frac{9.25}{10}
9.25/10=92.5=100=925/1000=925 thousandths=0.925

so the decimal would be 5.925
