There were 276 people on an airplane. write a number greater than 276

The possible number that is greater than 276 is 277.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given number,

276,

Since, in the number line the numbers are arranged in the ascending order from left to right,

Also, the integers right to 276 are,

277, 278, 279, 280,

Hence, the number greater than 276 are,

277, 278, 279, 280,

Note : We taught about positive integers because number of people can not be fractions or decimals.

c is the correct answer

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
