Write the correct equation. Direct variation problems are solved using the equation y = kx. When dealing with word problems, you should consider using variables other than x and y, you should use variables that are relevant to the problem being solved. Also read the problem carefully to determine if there are any other changes in the direct variation equation, such as squares, cubes, or square roots.
Answer: Raymond is correct
The DJ charges $75 an hour.
=================================================
Explanation:
x = number of hours
y = total cost
The DJ does a 3-hour event for $275. This means one point is (x,y) = (3,275)
Another point is (5,425) because a 5-hour event costs $425.
Let's find the slope of the line through these two points.

The slope is 75, meaning that each time y goes up by 75, x goes up by 1.
Flipped around it means each time x goes up by 1, y goes up by 75.
This means each time we add on an extra hour, the cost goes up by $75.
The DJ charges $75 an hour. Raymond is correct.
