Plz me im bad ar math

a box contains 4 oranges, 9 apples, and 3 pears. liliana selects a piece of fruit from the box at random.

what is the probability that she selects an orange or a pear?

a.
1 over 20

b.
3 over 64

c.
7 over 16

d.
9 over 16

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
