In Graph x-axis represents number of visits and y-axis represents cost.
As graph comes up to be a linear one, so we can clearly say that cost is increasing linearly in multiples of 5.5 with increase in number of visits.
Example :
If museum is visited once then cost (y) = 5.5 x 1 = 5.5
If museum is visited twice then cost (y) = 5.5 x 2 = 11
If museum is visited thrice then cost (y) = 5.5 x 3 = 16.5
... cost (y) goes on in creasing when number of visits (x) increase with multiples of 5.5
y varies directly with x.
The constant of variation is k = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to check whether both vary directly with each other or not.
Every pair of x and y will be considered one by one
If y varies directly with x, it should satisfy y = kx or k = yx
So,
For x= -2, y=-14
For
x=3, y=21
For
x=5, y=35
As k is same for all pairs of x and y, it can be concluded that:
y varies directly with x.
The constant of variation is k = 7
