Which equations show a direct variation between x and y when solved for y? Choose all answers that are correct. A. 3/4y = 6x B. y = 2/5x - 2/5 C. y = 27x D. 2y = x

I would first ask, what is direct variation?

OpenStudy (potatoofhistory):

the Direct Variation formula is y=kx

OpenStudy (potatoofhistory):

I'm horrible at math :I

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

That's good. now out of all your possible answer choices, when you solve for y, which one(s) fit the form: \(y=kx\)?

OpenStudy (stamp):

Correct. Also said as, If y is directly proportional to x, the equation is of the form y = kx (where k is a constant).

OpenStudy (stamp):

Only answer choices B and C are solved for y. What was produced when you solved answer choices A and D for y?
