There are 239 cars in the parking lot. Of those cars, 27% are blue. About how many cars are blue?

65 cars are blue

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of blue cars, take the total number of cars and multiply by the percent that are blue

239 * 27%

239 * .27

64.53

Rounding to the nearest whole car

65

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
