Given the table below, do x and y vary directly? If so, what is the constant of variation?

Yes, x and y vary directly. The constant of variation is 2.

No, x and y do not vary directly.

Yes, x and y vary directly. The constant of variation is 4.

1 answer

To determine if \( x \) and \( y \) vary directly, we need to check if the ratio \( \frac{y}{x} \) is constant for all pairs of values in the provided table.

If you provide the specific values from the table, I can help you calculate whether \( x \) and \( y \) vary directly and find the constant of variation. Without the specific values, I cannot determine which of the given statements is correct. Please provide the values of \( x \) and \( y \) from the table.
