Answer 2

is an example of direct variation?

Answer 3

Definition: A relationship between two variables in which one is a constant multiple of the other. In particular, when one variable changes the other changes in proportion to the first.

Answer 4

So y = kx, where k is a constant.

Answer 5

Anything like that is a direct variation since y is proportion to it.

Answer 6

So here's a example:

Cost of filling up a car with gas varies directly with the number of gallons of gasoline that you purchase.
If a gallon of gas costs $3.00, how many gallons could you purchase for $18?

Answer 7

x = # of gallons purchased
y = cost to fill the car up

y = kx

3.00 = k*1

Answer 8

y = 3.00x

18 = 3x
x = 18/3
x = 6

Answer 9

I hope that made sense lol.
