varies directly with the weight of the dog. w. the vet uses these steps to find the amount of medicine to give a 10-pound dog
step 1
find the constant of variation.
k - 50
-0.01
step 2
step 3
write the direct variation equation.
m-0.01w
substitute 10 into the equation to find the dosage for a 10-
pound dog.
10 -0.01w
solve for w.
step 4
10 - 001w
w - 1000
