: Find the constant of variation k.
m varies directly with n; m = 144 when n = 8.
I did not understand how or where to start this problem so if you could show me how you got your answer so I can understand it for my test next week. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. This question is from textbook Beginning Algebra
If two quantities vary directly that means that their ratio is a constant
Let k= the constant of variation, then
m/n=k
k=144/8=
k=18
