State a conclusion that seems reasonable.

you find a nest with 12 eggs in it. the first 5 hatch out to be snakes.

what's the !

Given is - You find a nest with 12 eggs in it. The first 5 hatch out to be snakes.  

A conclusion is defined as a judgment reached by reasoning.

Here given is that out of 12 eggs, 5 hatch out out to be snakes. So, it is possible that the rest were also snakes.

As all the eggs are found in the nest, together, it can be concluded that all eggs belong to a snake. There is close to no possibility, that two different species eggs can be found in a single nest.

Therefore, if 5 eggs were that of snakes, then the rest will also be of snakes.

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
