Question

Write y =1/6 x + 5 in standard form using integers.

Answer 1

it is in standard form y = mx+c
i guess you mean, 6y = x + 30

Answer 2

Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = 8 when x = –6. What direct variation equation relates x and y? What is the value of y when x = –2?

Answer 3

it depends on your y-intercept ... if the line is passing through origin, i.e. y=0 when x=0 then it would be -2x8/-6 = 8/3

Answer 4

Does the equation represent a direct variation? If so, find the constant of variation.

5x = -3y

Answer 5

Here are the definitions for the various equations of a line
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_a_line#Forms_for_2D_linear_equations
standard form is
Ax+By=C where A is positive.

Answer 6

Direct variation means can you find a number K so
x = K y

if you have 5x= -3y
can you get x by itself on the left?

Answer 7

i guess so

Answer 8

try it

Answer 9

divide both sides by 5

Answer 10

A. no
B. yes; k = -5/3
C. yes; k = 5/3
D. yes; k = 3/5
these are some of the choices

Answer 11

???

Answer 12

Direct variation means can you find a number K so
x = K y

if you have 5x= -3y
can you get x by itself on the left?

divide both sides by 5
