How do you solve the direct variation y equals 5x plus 1?
y = 5x + 1 is nota direct variation.y = 5x + 1 is nota direct variation.y = 5x + 1 is nota direct variation.y = 5x + 1 is nota direct variation.
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
What is the constant of variation in the direct variation x-y equals 0?
1
Can ax plus by equals c be a direct variation if a and b and c does not equal 0?
No, direct variation is "y=ax." In direct variation a equals any real constant, b=1, and c must equal zero. If any of thee conditions are changed, it is not direct variation.
Does the equation 2y5x 1 represent a direct variation?
Without an equality sign the information given does not represent an equation.
