If you have changed the tires on you car, the original diameter is 24.5 inches. to a new diameter of 26 inches, how far have you actually gone if your odometer is reading 1500 miles?

a. 1226 miles c. 1500 miles

b. 1328 miles d. 1592 miles

I believe it is b. 1328 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

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

graph of this function as shown below:

factor trees are nice.
