Y varies directly with X and has a constant rate of change of 6. When the value of Y is 11, then the value of X could be _____. equal to zero less than 2 equal to 6 greater than 11
This is direct variation, the formula is y=kx where k is the constant rate and x changes by the constant to = y. All you have to do is sub the numbers into the equation, try it :)
wahts the equation?/
y=kx you use that for direct variation problems. Do you know what to do?
y=6 ???
oh nvm y=11
Yes y=11 the question says that.
So 6=kx what would you do now?
find x
Your given k right?
no
k = constant rate of change
so six
Yes
Can you solve x now?
is the equation 6=6x
y = 11 not 6 remember in the question?
so 6=11x
No y = 11, and k= 6. 11=6x.
un ok 11=6x how culd x equal anyof those im not understanding
The rate of change or k, multiplied by x will equal to y. k is just gradient or m,know that right?|dw:1376657210566:dw|
