If the X are the same then remove it n it's a function
The answer is B because the quantity tends to stay the same as the sample goes up
The answer to the question
Use quotient rule to find y"
y" = [-(x-3)-(1-x)]/(x-3)^2 = 2/(x-3)^2
y" = -4/(x-3)^3
-4/(x-3)^3 > 0
(x-3)^3 < 0
x-3 < 0
x< 3
hope this help
Directly proportional means if x has a certain value, y should have the same value. but here in the graph, when x is 0, y has a value greater than 0. for x and y to be directly proportional, the line should go through 0.
