Which of the following statements are true about the function y = x + 2? The function is a direct variation. The function does not go through the origin. The constant of variation is 2. Y is 4, when x is 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 is false, because a direct variation is of the form y = mx, with no vertical shift

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 is true because if you plug in: \[(0) = (0) + 2\] you get a false statement, so the origin isn't a point on the line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(4) = (2) + 2\]
