How does the constant of variation affects the appearance of the graph of a direct variation function?
The formula direct variation is xk=y, where k is the constant of variation.Direct variation functions always pass through the origin. Direct variation functions are linear functions (goes in a straight line), except that they pass through the origin. Regular linear functions don't pass through the origin. That is the only difference.
Is a linear relationship always a direct variation?
No.
What is direct square variation in math?
direct square variation is a function that relates the same or equal constant ratio. It is a function that is typically used in different kinds of algebra.
How can you tell by examining a graph if a line represents a direct variation?
The graph must be linear and pass thru the origin
What is the constant of proportionality of the linear function?
The linear function has the form y=mx+b, which I expect you have heard of. The 'b' is the y-intercept, and the 'm' is the slope. A constant of proportionality is something you have with direct variation, which is where the line goes through (0,0). This happens when 'b' equals zero. So now the equation is just y=mx, and the constant of proportionality is 'm'.
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.
Does every linear equasion represent a direct variation relationship?
I have recently been doing all these direct variation problems but not every linear relationship is a direct variation... But every direct variation is a linear relation!

Is every linear relationship a direct variation?
no.
Is a linear relationship always a direct variation?
No.
What do all direct variation graphs have in common?
All direct variation graphs are linear and they all go through the origin.
Difference between the graphs of linear equations and a direct variation?
Linear has a slope direct does not but both go through the orgin
What makes a decreasing linear relationship a direct variation?
if the line runs through the origin it is a direct variation no matter if it is increasing or decreasing
Which equation represents a direct linear variation?
Y=1/x
Is y9x 1 a direct variation function?
No.
Does the function y equals 8x represent a direct or inverse variation?
Direct
