What is the direct variation equation if f(x) varies directly with x and f(x) = –9 when x = 3?
f(x) = -1/3x
f(x) = –3x
f(x) = –6x
f(x) = –12x

DO YOU KNOW THE EQUATION THAT WE USE FOR DIRECT VARIATION ?
OpenStudy (bananas1234):
F(X) = KX
Nnesha (nnesha):
perfect replace f(x) by -9
and x by 3
then solve for k
OpenStudy (bananas1234):
ok then would i have -9 = k times 3
Nnesha (nnesha):
yes right :)

Nnesha (nnesha):
now solve for k :)
OpenStudy (bananas1234):
k = -9/3
Nnesha (nnesha):
yes right now reduce that fraction :)
OpenStudy (bananas1234):
-3
Nnesha (nnesha):
YES SO k = -3
now use that same equation and replace k by -3
then u r done

OpenStudy (bananas1234):
-9 = -3 times 3?
Nnesha (nnesha):
nope just replace k by -3
f(x)=kx <-- just k
OpenStudy (bananas1234):
f(x) = -3
Nnesha (nnesha):
hmm where is x
who kidnapped da X ?? ;)
OpenStudy (bananas1234):
ha ha :D, f(x) = -3x
