Q:

Suppose you buy two sweaters. each sweater costs the same amount. the amount of money you spend varies directly with the number of sweaters you buy. if you spent $37.50 for two sweaters, what is the constant of variation?

Accepted Solution

A:
the constant of the variation is the price of the sweater. In this case, it will be $37.50÷2 = $18.75.
Thus, the constant of variation is 18.75
