Does y equal 1X show direct variation?
Yes. y = 1x is the same as y = x which is the simplest case of direct variation. If you consider the equation y = mx + b, then a direct variation will always have b = 0 (i.e. the graph goes through the origin). The value of m is called the "constant of variation", and the equation is usually written as y = kx.
After you have determined if two quantities are in direct or inverse variation you can find the of blank the equation by solving it a degree b constant c variable d value which one is it?
B. Constant
In the linear equation is the variable for the y intercept b or c ie y equals mx plus b or y equals mx plus b?
in the equation: y=mx+b , the y-intercept is represented by "b".
How do you write an equation for a line?
There are several ways to write an equation for a line. One common form is ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are some constant values. A very useful form of the line equation is y = mx + b (m and b are constant). Since this is solved for "y", you can easily calculate pairs of value. Besides, m is the slope, and b is the point where the line intercepts the y-axis. This form can't be used to describe a vertical line, though.
What does mx plus b equals y mean?
The equation y = mx + b is the equation for a line in slope-intercept form. The slope is m, and the y-axis intercept is b.
