2x-4y=0

Whats the question?

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Solve for X

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does the equation represent a direct variation? if so, find the constant of variation

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

This equation is \[2\times X - 4= 0\]

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Reg it is to solve for X right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its solve for k . As in the direct variation

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

I see no K...I must be BLIND

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2,1) :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its some kind of messed up algebra we are being taught

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You want to get y by itself... add 4y to each side.. whats the equation now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or (4,2) :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or (6,3) ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or (6,3) except that isn't the question Karrie.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its not looking for points, the teacher wants to know the variation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, I was just confused there because the questions didn't have any instructions and I automatically took to graphing. :)

OpenStudy (timaashorty):

\[y= \frac{ x }{ 2 }\]

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

The K they are talking about is discussed here: http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/algebra/ao4/ldirect.htm
