Help with number 1 and 2 please

this is a direct variation proportion. y = kx

y is the total amount due, k is the constant of variation, and x is the number of texts sent.

plug in the 3.20 and the 16 to solve for the "k". this is the constant of proportionality. it is the value that will not change.

3.20 = k(16). solving you get $.20 per text.

the equation would then be y = .20x

umm you say your want to . but you do know that this is the mathematics.

you do this bc you want to find the total of the whole line and those two numbers make up the line
