Write a direct variation equation that has (3,11) as a solution. Then find y when x=12.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y = k*x
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "kx = y
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute 3 for x and 11 for y and find k
\n" ); document.write( "3k = 11
\n" ); document.write( "k = \"11%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "Now we have: y = \"11%2F3\"x, as our equation
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find y when x = 12
\n" ); document.write( " y = \"11%2F3\"*12
\n" ); document.write( " y = 11*4; cancel out the denominator
\n" ); document.write( " y = 44, when x = 12
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "How about this? Did I make it understandable to you? \n" ); document.write( "
