Since 17 is 1/3 of the rope, you multiply 17 times 3.

table 3 represents a direct variation function. : )

the height of the surface increases from the center out to the sides of the road.

step-by-step explanation:

as we move out we move away from the x-axis.

and as mentioned in the problem statement that height of a road increases when we move away from the center x.
