A building has two sizes of apartments, small and regular. The ratio of small apartments to regular apartments is 18 to 7. What percent of apartments in the building are small? *SHOW YOUR WORK*

257.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

search up the fromlua and plug in the numbers

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
