The equation can be written as
y = 16x/20
which can be simplified to
y = 4x/5
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.
Points: (13, 17) and (19, 23) Midpoint: (16, 20) Slope of required equation: 5/4 Its equation: 4y = 5x or as y = 1.25x Its distance from (0, 0) to (16, 20) = 4 times sq rt 41
-2t = -10
4x - 20 = -44x = 16x = 4

No. It is a single number. For a direct variation you need a minimum of two pairs of ordered numbers.
-48 -16 = 20 First add -48 and -16, which = -64, which indicates that this is not an equation, because both sides are not equal. -64 ≠20
Let x the first number, y the second number. equation 1: x/y = 4 equation 2: x+y =20 equation 3: manipulate equation 1 ----> x=4y substitute equation 3 to equation 2: 4y+y=20 5y=20 y=20/5 y=4 solve for the value of x by substituting the value of y to equations 1 or 2: using equation 1: x/4=4 x=4*4 x=16 using equation 2: x+4=20 x=20-4 x=16 Therefore, the two (2) numbers are: 4 and 16.

Let the numbers be a and b. then :-ab = -16 therefore b = -16/aa + b = 20 : substituting for b in this equation gives :-a - 16/a = 20 : a2 - 16 = 20a : a2 - 20a - 16 = 0Solving for a quadratic equation produces a = 10 ± 10.77 (2dp)The two numbers are therefore 10 + 10.77 = 20.77 and 10 - 10.77 = -0.77
It could be: 2x+16 = -24 in which case the value of x is -20
(4 x 20) - 16 = 43 Check: 80 - 16 = 64 64 = 64
This is the part of the equation that you solve first. for example: 4x4+(6-2)= you subract 6-2=4 then 4x4=16 then 16+4=20
3p - 16 < 20Add 16 to each side:3p < 36Divide each side by 3:p < 12
5 x 20 = 100
Combine the constants on one side. -4x = 36
4x - 16 = 64Add 16 to each side of the equation:4x = 80Divide each side by 4:x = 20
