Answer:
The correct option is;
A table with 6 columns and 2 rows. The first row, x, has entries, negative 3, negative 1, 2, 5, 10. The second row, y, has entries, negative 7.5, negative 2.5, 5.0, 12.5, 25
Please find attached the graphs of the table data
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the given table data of in the tables are analysed to find direct variation;
Table 1
x, -3, -1, 2, 5, 10
y, -4.5, -3.0, -1.5, 0.0, 1.5
-4.5/-3 = 1.5 ≠ -3.0/-1 = 3
No direct variation
Table 2
x, -5.5, -4.5, -3.5, -2.5, -1.5
y, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2
10/(-5.5) = -20/11 ≠ 8/(-4.5) = -16/9
However, 10/(-5.5 + 0.5) = -2 = 8/(-4.5 + 0.5) = -2
Adjusted direct variation
Table 3
x, -5.5, -5.5, -5.5, -5.5, -5.5
y, -3, -1, 2, 5 , 10
-3/(-5.5) ≠ -1/-5.5
No direct variation
Table 4
x, -3, -1, 2, 5, 10
y, -7.5, -2.5, 5.0 , 12.5, 25
-7.5/-3 = 2.5 = -2.5/(-1) = 5.0/2 = 12.5/5 =25/10
Direct variation exists
