12 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 time remaining 59: 00 which of the following employees has the greatest total employee compensation? a. employee a: total job benefits $68,100 and total job expenses $100 b. employee b: total job benefits $68,400 and total job expenses $300 c. employee c: total job benefits $68,700 and total job expenses $800 d. employee d: total job benefits $69,000 and total job expenses $1,000

Correct answer is D, just took the test

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation
