We can represent this situation by the equation 2x+4x+5x=33.
Then 11x=33, and x = 3.
Then the children's ages are in the ratio 2x:4x:5x, or 2(3):4(3):5(3), or
6:12:15.
Do these 3 ages add up to 33? 6 + 12 + 15 = 33? YES!
The children's ages are 6, 12 and 15 years respectively.
Answer:

450 divided by 2.50 = 180
Answer:
a. 4y =12x the constant of variation is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for direct variation is y=kx
a. 4y =12x
Divide each side by 4
4y/4 = 12x/4
y = 3x
This is direct variation and the constant is 3
Equations b ,c, d all have a constant added which make them something other than a direct variation
