WILL METAL

nnesha · Answer

what is metal ?
i want chocolates ...

nnesha · Answer

equation for direct variation is y = kx ( k is multiplying with x)
inverse variation   y = k/x <-- division( k is divided by x)

nnesha · Answer

so y = 6x is it direct variation or inverse ?

anonymous · Answer

x and Y are directly proportional to each other since their division remains constant. 
y=6x
y/x=6

As value of one of the variables increases, the value of the other is bound to increase to keep the quotient constant to 6.

your chocolate cx lol and is it inverse?

nnesha · Answer

inverse ? how ?
direct ? how ?
what do you think it's direct ?

anonymous · Answer

im actully lost xc thats why lol

nnesha · Answer

alright y = 6x in this equation k = 6 which is constant of variation 
if k is multiplying with x then it's direct 
if k is dividing by x then inverse 
inverse ( division k/x)
direct(multiplication kx)

anonymous · Answer

so it is direct thanks cx ^.^

nnesha · Answer

what do you thin its direct ??
explain ? o^_^o
