<span>If the tip, t, varies directly with the number of guests, g, then
it means that any change in tip there is a corresponding change in the
number of guests. When the tip increases the number of guests increases
as well. Therefore,
t </span>α g
To change the it to equal sign, we incorporate a proportionality constant, k.
t =<span> kg

This equation will represent the relation of t to g
Answer:
It is an unusual result contradicting the national survey.
Step-by-step explanation:
National survey showed 44% of college students who drink.
The professor's survey showed that 96/244 = 39% drink.
The professor's survey deviated from the national survey is 5% (44% - 39%) representing about 0.25% (5% squared) variance.
Standard deviation is the spread of a set of numbers from their mean. In other words, it measures how far an observed value is from the mean. It can be calculated by getting the square root of the variance.
Let's make "x" the variable for Maria's age.
And since Maria's father is 20 years older than Maria:
Age of Maria's Father = x + 20.
We know that perpendicular lines have slopes which are negative inverses of each other. This means that the slope of the line we are going to need to find is 3.
Now, we can use the point-slope formula to find the actual equation of the line we are trying to find. The point-slope formula is

, where

and

are the coordinates of a point on the line and m is the slope.
Thus, the equation of the line we are trying to find is:
(y - 7) = 3(x - 2)
y - 7 = 3x - 6
y = 3x + 1
However, this is not an answer choice. The answers given have the constant on the right side of the equation. Thus, we will make our answer have the constant on the right side:
y - 3x = 1
-3x + y = 1
3x - y = -1
This is an answer choice.
B, or
3x - y = -1 is the correct answer.
