Answer:

No, because it doesn't have a constant pattern and the ratios are nonequivalent

Answer:

True, the relation is directly proportional.

Explanation:

The direct proportionalty mean that ratio between the two variables is constant, that is:


k = (y)/(x)

Where:


x - Hours worked.


y - Amount of Dirt Excavated.


k_(1) = (6.6)/(3),
k_(1) = 2.2


k_(2) = (6.6)/(3),
k_(2) = 2.2


k_(3) = (17.6)/(8),
k_(3) = 2.2


k_(4) = (19.8)/(9),
k_(4) = 2.2

SInce ratio remains is constant, the assumption is true.
