Which set of ordered pairs is not a direct variation?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The first option is not a direct variation

Step-by-step explanation:

When we talk of a direct variation, as one value increases, the other value increases too

Or as one value decreases, the other value decreases

A direct variation is of the form;

y = kx

k = y/x

where k is the coefficient of variation that must be a constant value all through the set of values

The values we are comparing here are the x and y values

So

let us take a look at the options;

The first option is not a direct variation

For the first option, the rate of increase is not constant;

2/6 = 1/3 , 8/12 = 2/3 , 14/18 = 7/9

for the second;

the ratio is 1 to 1

for the third;

3/6 = 1/2 ; 6/12 = 1/2; 9/18 = 1/2

for the fourth;

2/6 = 1/3, 4/12 = 1/3 , 6/18 = 1/3

When a jug is half- filled with marbles, it weighs 2.6 kg. The jug weighs 4 kg when it is full. Find the weight of the empty jug
baherus [9]

the difference between a full jug and a jug that is half full will give us the weight of the marbles only in a half full jug:
4 - 2.6 = 1.4 kg

In a half full jug that weighs 2.6 kg, the weight of the marbles is 1.4 kg 
the weight of the jug = 2.6 - 1.4 = 1.2 kg
