Question

Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Assume that y varies directly as x. Then solve. If y=-8 when x=-2,find x when y=32

Answer 1

\[
y=cx
\]So\[
-8=c(-2)
\]Solve for \(c\).

Answer 2

Then you can solve for \(x\)\[
32=cx
\]

Answer 3

Is the direct variation equation y=4x
