Direct variation is modeled by an equation of y = kx.
If all the pairs of values in the table give us a constant proportion, then that's a direct variation.

As we can see, 8/32 = 1/4 ≠ 8/24 = 1/3. So that's not a direct variation.

The answer choice is D.

Jace is a songwriter who collects royalties in his songs whenever they are played in a commercial or a movie. Jace will earn $50
VashaNatasha [74]

Jace's song were played on 8 commercials and 2 movies

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Simultaneous Linear Equations could be solved by using several methods such as :

  • <em>Elimination Method</em>
  • <em>Substitution Method</em>
  • <em>Graph Method</em>

If we have two linear equations with 2 variables x and y , then we need to find the value of x and y that satisfying the two equations simultaneously.

Let us tackle the problem!

<em>Let:</em>

<em>Number of Commercials = C</em>

<em>Number of Movies = M</em>

\texttt{ }

<em>Jaces songs were played on 6 more commercials than movies.</em>

\boxed{C = 6 + M} → <em>Equation 1</em>

\texttt{ }

<em>Jace will earn $50 every time one of his songs is played in a commercial and he will earn $140 every time one of his songs is played in a movie.</em>

<em>His total earnings in the royalties from all commercials and movies was $680.</em>

\boxed{50C + 140M = 680} → <em>Equation 2</em>

\texttt{ }

<em>Equation 1  ↔ Equation 2 :</em>

50C + 140M = 680

50 ( 6 + M ) + 140M = 680

300 + 50M + 140M = 680

190M = 680 - 300

190M = 380

M = 380 \div 190

M = 2

\texttt{ }

C = 6 + M

C = 6 + 2

C = 8

\texttt{ }

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

The number of commercials and the number of movies in which Jaces songs where played is respectively 8 and 2

If a tax percentage is 8% how much money would something $30 be?
lora16 [44]
<span>If the base rate of Taxation percentage is only 8%, and the item in question that is being taxed costs $30, then the answer of how much the tax will cost ends up being 8% of 30. 8% of 30 is 2.4 so 8% of $30 is $2.40. So the cost of the $30 item, including tax, is $32.40.</span>
