You can use the definition of a directly variating function to deduce which table represents such function.

The fourth table represents direct variation with coefficient of variation as 2.5

What is a directly variating function?

A function y = f(x) is said to be directly variating if we can write the function as: y = kx for some constant value k.

Checking all the tables to see which table is representing such function

  • For first table, lets assume y = kx, then

For x = -3, y = -4.5, thus k = y/x = -4.5/-3 = -1.5

Lets check if this k is preserved for next pairs of values.

For x = -1, we will have y = 1.5 times -1 = -1.5 but y = -3 thus this table doesn't represent direct variation.

  • For second table, lets assume y = kx, then

For  x = -5.5, y = 10, thus k = y/x = 10/-5.5 = -1.818..

Now for x = -4.5, y should be kx = -4.5 times -1.818.. = 8.18.. but given y is 8. Thus this table doesn't represent direct variation.

  • For third table, lets assume y = kx, then

For x = -5.5, there are many values of y. But since k is assumed constant and x = -5.5 is also a constant thus y should be a unique constant and is not supposed to have multiple values as shown in table, thus it doesn't represent direct variation.

Actually, this isn't a function either since for one input, a function always outputs only one output.

  • For fourth table, lets assume y = kx, then

For x -3, y = -7.5, thus k = y/x = -7.5/-3 = 2.5

Now for rest of the values of x, we expect these values:

[tex]x = -1, y = kx = 2.5 \times -1 = -2.5\\\\ x = 2, y = kx = 2.5 \times 2 = 5.0\\\\ x = 5, y= kx = 2.5 \times 5 = 1.25\\\\ x = 10, y= kx = 2.5 \times 10 = 25.0[/tex]

Since given y values are same as we obtained, thus, this table represents direct variation with factor 2.5

Thus, fourth table represents direct variation with coefficient of variation as 2.5
