k = 1.33 or 1 1/3

Formula of Direct variation. Where y is equal to the product of the constant of variation times x.

y = kx
16 = k * 12
k = 16/12
k = 1 4/12 = 1 1/3

Constant of variation is 1 1/3 or 1.33.

Which equation represents a line that passes through (5, 1) and has a slope of 1/2?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

here m = \frac{1}{2} and (a, b) = (5, 1), so

y - 1 = \frac{1}{2}(x - 5)

30 points I'm struggling Find the equations of each line and show all of your work. (1, 5) (2, 6) (1, 1) (3, -8) (2, -3) (5, -2)
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

1.(1,5) and (2,6) , 6-5/2-1=1/1 m=1 ,y=1x+b

5=1(1)+b 4=b

y=x+4

2.(1,1) and (3,-8) -8-1/3-1=-9/2 m=-9/2 ,y=-9/2x+b

1=-9/2(1)+b b=11/2

y=-9/x+11/2

3.(2.-3) and (5,-2) m=1/3 ,y=1/3x+b

-3=1/3(2)+b -3=2/3+b

-3-2/3=b

 b=-11/3

y=1/3x-11/3

4.(2,5)and (4,3) m=-1 y=-1x+b

5=-1(2)+b 5=-2+b

5+2=b

b=7

y=-1x+7

6.(-3,-5) and (-1,-3) m=2/2=1 y=1x+b

-5=1(-3)+b -5=-3+b

-5+3=b

-2=b

y=1x-2
