Answer: Yes, y does vary directly with x.
Constant of variation = 1/4
The function rule is y = (1/4)x
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's assume that y does vary directly with x.
If that's the case, then we have an equation in the form y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.
Solving for k gets us k = y/x
For each row, divide the y value over the x value
- row one: k = y/x = 14/56 = 0.25
- row two: k = y/x = 20/80 = 0.25
- row three: k = y/x = 22/88 = 0.25
Each row yields the value k = 0.25 and it fully confirms y does vary directly with x.
So y = kx becomes y = 0.25x as the function rule, which is equivalent to y = (1/4)x
Since irrational numbers are forever going, multiplying any nonzero rational number with an irrational number will make the product irrational as well
False.
y= 3(1)+1= 4
y= 3(2)+1=7 not 5
y= 3(3)+1=10 not 6
Let's say the cost of student tickets is x and the cost of adult tickets is y. Then:
(1) 12y + 6x = 138
(2) 5y + 11x = 100
If we rearrange equation (1) we get:
12y = 138 - 6x
Now divide each side by 12:
y = 11.5 - 0.5x
We can now substitute this into equation (2):
5(11.5 - 0.5x) + 11x = 100
57.5 - 2.5x + 11x = 100
8.5x = 42.5
x = 5, therefor the cost of a student ticket is $5.00
Did you figure out the answer cause i need it
