How do you find the equation for a direct variation?
find the direct variation equation 3x+y=0
Why is the origin 0 0 so important in direct variation?
The origin 0 0 so important in direct variation since it is the reference point.
Is a linear function a direct variation?
yes * * * * * No, it is not. In a direct variation, if one of the variables is 0, the other MUST also be 0. In a linear function, they will be the intercepts.
Why does the graph of an equation expressing direct variation always pass through the origin?
For a direct variation, y=kx where k is the constant of variation if x =0 then y=0 and the graph of y=kx passes through the origin. -Indiana Prentice Hall Algebra 2 Text Book.
What lists of ordered pairs is a function?
(9, 4), (5, 0), (5, 3), (-2, -6)
How do you find the equation for a direct variation?
find the direct variation equation 3x+y=0
Which ordered pairs satisfy the equation y equals -9x?
There are infinitely many ordered pairs. One of these is (0, 0).
Why is the origin 0 0 so important in direct variation?
The origin 0 0 so important in direct variation since it is the reference point.
Is a linear function a direct variation?
yes * * * * * No, it is not. In a direct variation, if one of the variables is 0, the other MUST also be 0. In a linear function, they will be the intercepts.
What is the constant of variation in the direct variation x-y equals 0?
1
Set of ordered pairs has point symmetry with respect to the origin 0 0?
circle
Is the direct variation of two variables always a linear function?
YES...A direct variation is a linear relationship in which y-intercept is always 0.
When is a linear function considered to be a direct variation?
Direct variation means that a linear function can be written as y = kx. The y-intercept must be (0, 0). The constant, k, is the slope.
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.
What is directly variation?
A variable y is said to be in direct variation with a variable x if there is a constant c (>0) such that y = c*x. c is called the constant of direct variation or proportionality.
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.
What points are in the first quadrant of the xy-plane?
All ordered pairs, (a,b) such that a > 0 and b > 0
