Question

What is the contant value in direct variation?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Since k is constant (the same for every point), we can find k when given any point by dividing the y-coordinate by the x-coordinate. For example, if y varies directly as x, and y = 6 when x = 2, the constant of variation is k = = 3. Thus, the equation describing this direct variation is y = 3x.

Answer 2

where k is the constant of variation. Since k is constant (the same for every point), we can find k when given any point by dividing the y-coordinate by the x-coordinate. ... For example, if y varies directly as x, and y = 6 when x = 2, the constant of variation is k = = 3.
