2 1/8 and 17/8 are reciprocal numbers. True False

False

Step-by-step explanation:

If make 2 1/8 into an improper fraction, it will be 17/8. a reciprocal is a flip of a number, so it is false.

i used to know how to do this in 7th but i forget easily

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
