Question 309787: given the values of x and y, find the equation of variation in which y varies directly as x. Y =8, when x=5 Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! given the values of x and y, find the equation of variation in which y varies directly as x. Y =8, when x=5
------------
y = kx
---
solve for "k" given that y = 8 when x = 5
8 = k*5
k = (8/5)
------
Equation:
y = (8/5)x
