Yes.Here two variables X & Y are related in such a way that the ratio of their values always remains the same.

Yes.

no.

If you mean x/2 + y/3 = 0 (ZERO, not the letter O) then yes. The equation can be rewritten as x/2 = - y/3 or x = (-2/3)y


Is the problem y equals 3x a direct variation if so what is the constant of variation?

y=3x is a direct variation in that y varies directly with x by a factor of 3. Any linear equation (a polynomial of degree 1, which is a polynomial equation with a highest exponent of 1), is a direct variation of y to x by some constant, and this constant is simply the coefficient of the "x" term. Other examples: y=(1/2)x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is 1/2 y=-9x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is -9


Is 2x plus 3y equals 0 a direct variation?

Direct variation refers to two variable quantities have a constant (unchanged) ratio, in which a variable "varies directly with the other."In order to have a direct variation, the constant of variation must be not equal to 0 in the equation y=kx, where k is the constant.When you try to put 2x+3y=0 into that formula (y= form), you get:2x+3y=03y=-2x ;Subtract the 2xy=(-2/3)x ;Divide by 3Your constant of variation is -2/3, and since it is less than 0, it is does variate directly. Therefore, y varies directly as x.

No. For direct variation, any order pair with a 0 in it MUST be (0,0).


Does -8 plus plus 3 equals -5?

Yes, -8 plus plus 3 equals -5. The "plus plus" is equivalent to a positive sign, so -8 plus (+3) equals -5.
