Answer:
X =10
Step-by-step explanation:
If you have a scientific calculator that can help you a lot.
I will upload a picture you can follow to solve this problem.
A)
The formula for direct variation is written as Y = kx, where k is the proportion you need to solve for.
Y would be the amount raised and X would be the number of attendees:
100 = k5
Divide both sides by 5:
k = 100/5
k = 20
B. the constant of variation is the value of k above which is 20
C) Using the formula from A: y = kx, replace k with 20 and x with 60 and solve for y:
y = 20 * 60
y = 1200
They will raise $1,200
2. If the relationship is proportional the ratio would be a constant number. If the relationship is non proportional the ratio would vary between the different values.
