Linear, Quadratic, Exponential Review:Question 7 The sides of a right triangle are represented by three
consecutive even integers. Let x be the length of the
shortest side. Which of the following equations correctly
models the situation?
Select one:
<? - (2 + 4) = (2 + 2)2
O
2 + (x + 2) = x +4
2? + (x + 1)² = (2+2)
O2? + (x + 2)² = (x + 4)2

Step-by-step explanation:

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
