How do you find the constant and slope for direct variation equations?
For a direct variation equation the constant MUST be 0. Then the ratio of a pair of values of the two variables is the slope.
When two quantities form a direct variation what is it called?
A direct variation (!) or direct reelationship.
Is y equals 2x plus 5 a direct variation if so what is the constant of variation?
No, it is not a direct variation.
Does every linear equasion represent a direct variation relationship?
I have recently been doing all these direct variation problems but not every linear relationship is a direct variation... But every direct variation is a linear relation!
After determining if two quantities are in inverse or direct you can find the equation's constant by solving for it?
variation
How do you find the equation for a direct variation?
find the direct variation equation 3x+y=0

Is direct variation a special case?
Direct variation is not a special case.
Is y equals 3x direct variation?
Yes, it is direct variation.

No, it is not a direct variation.

How do you find if a table is direct variation or inverse variation?
Suppose the two variables are denoted by X and Y. If Y is a constant multiple of X, that is Y = c*X, then the variation is direct. If the value of X*Y is a constant, that is Y = c/X, then the variation in inverse.
How do you do a direct variation with an inverse variation problem?
If a variable X is in inverse variation with a variable Y, then it is in direct variation with the variable (1/Y).
What is the difference direct variation and inverse variation?
Direct variation is the ratio of two variable is constant. Inverse variation is when the product of two variable is constant. For example, direct variation is y = kx and indirect variation would be y = k/x .
What does the k represent in the direct variation ykx?
The constant of variation in a direct variation is the constant (unchanged) ratio of two variable quantities. The formula for direct variation is. y=kx (or y=kx ) where k is the constant of variation .
