determine whether y varies directly with x. if so, find the constant of variation k and write the equation.

  y DOES NOT vary directly with x

Step-by-step explanation:

If variation is direct, the ratio of y to x is a constant. Here, we have ...

  11/7 ≠ 13/8

so variation is not direct.

___

It appears that y = 2x-3, rather than y = kx for some k. The added constant (-3) means variation is not direct.

not enough information

step-by-step explanation:

we cannot know this, because the other students could have handed out 10 flyers, or they could have handed out 100. one way, the mean would go up, and another way, the mean would go down.

the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. if you take the three sides of a triangle and add them in pairs, the sum is greater than (not equal to) the third side. if that is not true, then it is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.
