Changing the Constant of Variation
Aunt Andrea decided to help with decorations for Rachel’s party. Aunt Andrea created a table to find the amount of balloons she will need.

A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled Tables, x with entries 3, 4, 5, 6. Column 2 is labeled Balloons, y with entries 15, 20, 25, 30.

What is the equation that represents the scenario?
y = x + 5
y = 5x
y = 3x
y = x + 15

y = 5x

Each table needs 5 balloons, since 3→15, 4→20, 5→25, 6→30 so y = 5·x.
