Given:

1 counsellor for every 9 campers.

Lets' determine the type of variation and write the equation.

Here, we can see that for every 9 campers, there is one extra counsellor. This means that as the number of campers increase, the number of counsellors will also increase.

Since one variable as the other increases, this is a direct variation.

Hence, we have the equation which represents the direct variation below:

y = 9x

Where x represents the number of counsellors and y represents the number of campers.

ANSWER:

Direct variation.

y = 9x
