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 .
What is the difference between 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 is a direct variation?
A direct variation is when the value of K in multiple proportions is all divisible by the same number for example: XY=(1)(10) K=10 XY=(2)(20) K=40 XY=(3)(30) K=90 XY=(4)(40) K=160 In this situation the constant (K) of each proportion is divisible by 10 making the multiple equations a direct variation.
What the three ways to represent a direct variation?
equation, table or a graph
What is the constant of variation k of the direct variation y kx through (3 2)?
It is 2/3.
