If the tip varies directly with the number of guests, which equation represents the relationship between the tip, t, and the number of guests, g?
If the tip, t, varies directly with the number of guests, g, then it means that any change in tip there is a corresponding change in the number of guests. When the tip increases the number of guests increases as well. Therefore,
t α g
To change the it to equal sign, we incorporate a proportionality constant, k.
t = kg
This equation will represent the relation of t to g.
Answer:
\(t=kg\)
Step-by-step explanation:
t represents the tip
g represents the no. of guests
We are given that the tip varies directly with the number of guests
Direct relation equation : \(x \propto y\)
So, ATQ
Equation : \(t \propto g\)
\(t=kg\)
Where k is the constant of proportionality
So, equation represents the relationship between the tip, t, and the number of guests, g is \(t=kg\)
