The correct answer is that y does not vary directly with x.
Explanation:
If y varies directly with x, this means that it would fit the equation y=kx for every point in the set.
For the first point, we would have 11=7k; this would mean that k=11//7.
For the second point, we would have 13=8k; this would mean that k=13/8.
Checking using proportions shows us that 11/7 does not equal 13/8:
cross multiply, and you have 11*8=7*13, or 88=91.
This is not true, so k is not a constant, and y does not vary directly with x.

Answer:
As equation for y varies directly with x with constant of variation k is y = kx .
(1 )Equation becomes 11 = 7k and constant of variation is 1.57 .
(2)Equation becomes 13 = 8k and constant of variation is 1.625 .
(3)Equation becomes 15 = 9k and constant of variation is 1.67 .
(4)Equation becomes 17 = 10k and constant of variation is 1.7 .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
y varies directly with x.
[tex]y \propto x[/tex]
y = kx
Where k is the constant of variation .
As given
x = 7 , y = 11
Equation becomes
11 = 7k
[tex]k = \frac{11}{7}[/tex]
k = 1.57 (Approx)
Thus equation becomes 11 = 7k and constant of variation is 1.57 .
As given
x = 8 , y = 13
Equation becomes
13 = 8k
[tex]k = \frac{13}{8}[/tex]
k = 1.625
Thus equation becomes 13 = 8k and constant of variation is 1.625 .
As given
x = 9 , y = 15
Equation becomes
15 = 9k
[tex]k = \frac{15}{9}[/tex]
k = 1.67 (Approx)
Thus equation becomes 15 = 9k and constant of variation is 1.67 .
As given
x = 10 , y = 17
Equation becomes
17 = 10k
[tex]k = \frac{17}{10}[/tex]
k = 1.7 (Approx)
Thus equation becomes 17 = 10k and constant of variation is 1.7 .
