How do you find the equation for a direct variation?

find the direct variation equation 3x+y=0


How do you know if the equation is a direct variation?

When two variables are related in such a way that the ratio of their values always remains the same, the two variables are said to be in direct variation. y=2x is direct variation y=x+2 is not direct variation


Which of these equations is a direct variation y equals -8x plus 1?

There is only one equation that is given in the question and that equation is not a direct variation.


The equation y 8x is an example of inverse variation is this true?

No. This is not true. It is false. The equation is an example of direct variation.


How do you know if x and y are direct variation?

Without the rest of the equation it is not possible to tell. * * * * * If the equation is in the form y = k*x where k is a non-zero constant, then it is.


Which equation represents a direct linear variation?

Y=1/x


What the three ways to represent a direct variation?

equation, table or a graph


What is the y-intercept of the graph of a direct variation equation?

Graphs of direct variation pass through the origin so the y-intercept would be 0.


Is it always sometimes or never true that an equation in slope intercept form represents a direct variation?

An equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) represents a direct variation only when the y-intercept (b) is zero, making it (y = mx). If (b) is non-zero, the equation does not represent a direct variation, which is defined as a linear relationship that passes through the origin. Therefore, it is "sometimes" true that an equation in slope-intercept form represents a direct variation, depending on the value of (b).


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


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.


Does the equation 2y5x 1 represent a direct variation?

Without an equality sign the information given does not represent an equation.
