The number of wrecks at a certain intersection varies directly as the number of cars that travel through the intersection. If there are 31 wrecks when 1,085 cars have traveled through the intersection, how many cars have passed through the intersection after 7 wrecks?

Sagot :

The number of cars that have passed through the intersection is 245.

How many cars passed through the intersection?

Direct variation is when two variables move in the same direction. If one variable increases, the other variable increases.

The equation that represents direct variation is; c = wk

Where:

  • c = number of cars
  • w = number of wrecks
  • k = constant of proportionality

1085 = k31

k = 1085 / 31

k = 35

c = 7 x 35

c = 245
