Yes it can be a direct variation. it follows the form y = kx
The only variable that cannot be held constant is F, but we can hold the mass constant and vary the acceleration OR we can hold the acceleration constant and vary the mass. Either one would work, but the easiest would be to vary the mass and hold the acceleration constant since we are all pulled by the same action gravity
The complete sentence should be:
<span><em>Composite</em> numbers can be written as a product of <em>prime</em> factors. This is called the prime factorization of a number.
A prime number is a number that can't be divided by any other number other than 1 or itself. Otherwise, that is a composite number. For example, 50 is a composite number. Through prime factorization,
50
/ \
10 5
/ \
5 2
The prime factors of composite number 50 are 5, 5 and 2.</span>
For 5 taccos 2 cups cheese is needed.
So 10 taccos is 2*(5 taccos)=2*2 cups cheese =4cups



So to convert taccos to cups of cheese multiply by 2/5 and from cups of cheese to taccos multiply by 5/2.
The slope is rise over run so it would be -1/3
This is the concept of applications of polynomial equations. Given that the height of the ball is modeled by the function:
h(t)=16t^2-64t
the maximum height will be calculated as follows;
h(t)=16t(t-4)
therefore:
t=0 or t=4
h(4)=-64(4)+16(4^2)
=0
