No.


Is a linear function a direct variation?

yes * * * * * No, it is not. In a direct variation, if one of the variables is 0, the other MUST also be 0. In a linear function, they will be the intercepts.

What is direct square variation in math?

direct square variation is a function that relates the same or equal constant ratio. It is a function that is typically used in different kinds of algebra.

Direct


When is a linear function considered to be a direct variation?

Direct variation means that a linear function can be written as y = kx. The y-intercept must be (0, 0). The constant, k, is the slope.


Is the constant of variation the same as slope?

yes y=kx is the formula for direct variation, and k represents constant of variation which can also be called slope.


Is the direct variation of two variables always a linear function?

YES...A direct variation is a linear relationship in which y-intercept is always 0.


What does k correspond to in a direct variation function?

k is the constant of variation and is the gradient (slope) of the relevant graph.


What is the compares in constant and variable rate of change?

Tell whether the equation -4x+ 2y = -2 represents a direct variation. If so, identify the constant of variation.


How can you tell by examining a graph if a line represents a direct variation?

The graph must be linear and pass thru the origin


How does the constant of variation affects the appearance of the graph of a direct variation function?

The formula direct variation is xk=y, where k is the constant of variation.Direct variation functions always pass through the origin. Direct variation functions are linear functions (goes in a straight line), except that they pass through the origin. Regular linear functions don't pass through the origin. That is the only difference.
