1. Direct variation

A. Write an equation for the following statements.
B. Write an equation when y varies directly as x.
1. y=63 when x=9
2. y=121 when x=11
3. y=36 when x=4
4. y=224 when x=8

Respuesta :

(1) y = 7x , (2) y = 11x , (3) y = 9x , (4) y = 28x

given y varies directly as x then y = kx ( k is the constant of variation )

(1) find k using the given conditions k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{63}{9}[/tex] = 7

equation is y = 7x

(2) k = [tex]\frac{121}{11}[/tex] = 11

equation is y = 11x

(3) k = [tex]\frac{36}{4}[/tex] = 9

equation is y = 9x

(4) k = [tex]\frac{224}{8}[/tex] = 28

equation is y = 28x
