As a court reporter, your job is to take notes of everything that happens in court. After the first court session, you've recorded 47 lines of text. After the second session, you've recorded 33 lines of text. How many total lines of text did you record for the day?

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we are expected to sum up the number of lines recorded during all court sessions for the day.

Also we know that the court report, reported for two (2) court session for that day.

Hence all the number of line is going to be from the 2 court sessions she reported

in the first court session we wrote 47 lines

in the second court session we reported 33 line

the total lines in all is 47+33= 80 lines

The total line recorded for the day is 80 lines

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
