1. What is the probability of not spinning a 5 or an 8 on the
spinner below? Write your answer using /to represent the
fraction bar.

3/4

Step-by-step explanation: The probability of spinning a 5 is 1/8, and the probability of spinning an 8 is 1/8, so the probability of spinning either one is 2/8. Therefore, the probability of NOT spinning a 5 or an 8 is 8/8 -2/8 or 6/8 which is the same as 3/4

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
