Use the net to compute the surface area of the three-dimensional figure. a) 210 units2 b) 225 units2 c) 240 units2 d) 280 units2

a² + b²= c²

24² + 7² = c²

c= 25

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
