EARNINGS The amount of money Serena earns at her job varies directly as the number of hours she works. Determine the amount Serena earns per hour.
Since the graph of the data forms a line, the rate of change is constant. Use the graph to find the constant ratio.
Answer: Serena earns $10 per hour.

EARNINGS The amount of money Elizabeth earns at her job varies directly as the number of hours she works. Determine the amount Elizabeth earns per hour.
SHOPPING The total cost for cans of soup varies directly as the number of cans purchased. If 4 cans of soup cost $5, how much would it cost to buy 8 cans?
Solve a Direct Variation
Write an equation of direct variation. Let x represent the number of cans and let y represent the cost.
y = kx Direct variation
5 = k(4) y = 5, x = 4
1.25 = k Simplify.
y = 1.25x Substitute for k = 1.25.
Use the equation to find y when x = 8.
Solve a Direct Variation
y = 1.25x
y = 1.25(8) x = 8
y = 10 Multiply.
Answer: It would cost $10 to buy 8 cans.

Identify Direct Variation
Determine whether the linear function is a direct variation. If so, state the constant of variation.
Answer: The ratios are not proportional, so the function is not a direct variation.
Compare the ratios to check for a common ratio.
