It is direct variation if x/y is a constant.
x/y = 2 / -6.6 = -1/3.3
y/x = -9.9/3 = -3.3
y/x = -6.6/ 2 = -3.3
y/x = -13.2/ 3 = -3.3
y/x = -16.2/ 3 = -3.24
So its not exactly direct variation as the last values is slightly different from the first 3.
To work out the profit, firstly, you have to work out the cost of buying them, which is $15 multiplied by 100, which is $1500. You then have to work out what he sold them all at, which is $29.99 multiplied by 100, which is $2999. You then have to subtract $1500 from $2999, giving you $1499. Therefore, Ace made $1499 in profit.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
≈ 20.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
A right triangle is formed between the wall, the ground and the ladder.
The ladder is the hypotenuse , the wall and ground are the legs.
let h be the height of the wall, then using Pythagoras' identity
h² + 33² = 39²
h² + 1089 = 1521 ( subtract 1089 from both sides )
h² = 432 ( take the square root of both sides )
h = 
≈ 20.8 ft ( to the nearest tenth )
The answer is 8.031 per person
