Use the table shown in the image! 1. Which equation expresses “y” in terms of “x”? A. y=17x B. y=25x C. x=51y D. x=85y 2. What is the charge for renting a machine for 3.5 hours? A. $51.50 B. $59.50 C. $65.50 D. $86.50 Please include all work!

 1. A. y=17x

2.  $59.50

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In the table , it can be seen that as x increases y increases with the proportionality constant k = ,.

Equation of direct variation between  x and y :

Put k= 17 , we get

, which is the required equation.

So correct option is "A".

2. To find : The charge for renting a machine for 3.5 hours.

Put x= 3.5 in above equation , we get

Hence, the  charge for renting a machine for 3.5 hours is $59.50.

So correct option is "B".
