less than 2
equal to 6

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 :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wahts the equation?/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=kx you use that for direct variation problems. Do you know what to do?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=6 ???
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh nvm y=11

Yes y=11 the question says that.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So 6=kx what would you do now?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
find x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Your given k right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no

k = constant rate of change
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so six
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can you solve x now?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is the equation 6=6x

y = 11 not 6 remember in the question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 6=11x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No y = 11, and k= 6.
11=6x.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
un ok 11=6x how culd x equal anyof those im not understanding
OpenStudy (anonymous):
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|
