will medalWhat is the direct variation equation if y varies directly with x and y = –5 when x = –15?

OpenStudy (phi):

what formula should you remember when you see *varies directly* ?

OpenStudy (jordan123321):

im not sure

OpenStudy (phi):

Do you have notes?

OpenStudy (jordan123321):

no

OpenStudy (jordan123321):

@phi

OpenStudy (jordan123321):

i really need this right

OpenStudy (phi):

a directly varies with b should remind you to write down a= k * b where k is some unknown number if you have "y varies directly with x " what equation should you write down?

OpenStudy (jordan123321):

nvm im gonna fail anyway

OpenStudy (phi):

are you saying you can't write down the equation? a directly varies with b should remind you to write down a= k * b your problem is the same except with different letters "y varies directly with x " what is the equation ?

OpenStudy (phi):

maybe a few more examples: W varies directly with Z: W = k Z A varies directly with V: A = k V R varies directly with T: R = k T can you do "y varies directly with x " ?
