At a summer camp there is one counselor for every 5 campers. Determine whether there is a direct variation between the number of
adell [148]
Campers = y and counselors = x.....1 counselor to 5 campers

y = kx
k = y/x
k = 5/1

y = 5x

lets check..
y = 5x....lets say u have 2 counselors...sub in 2 for x
y = 5(2)
y = 10....so when there is 2 counselors, there are 10 campers

y = 5x...lets say u have 3 counselors...sub in 3 for x
y = 5(3)
y = 15...so when there are 3 counselors, there are 15 campers

2/10 reduces to 1/5
3/15 reduces to 1/5

so yes, this is a direct variation with ur equation being y = 5x
