-4y = 8x

Divide both sides by -4

y = -2x

This is in the form of y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.
y = kx is the direct 

That means, k = -2. 

The constant of variation is B. -2.

Answer: B: -2


Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: -4y=8x

To make it in standard form divide both sides by -4, we get

y=-2x

Now this is in the standard form of y = mx, where m is the constant of variation.

\Rightarrow\ m=-2

Thus, the constant of variation is -2.

<em>The constant of variation (m) is the number that associates two variables that are directly proportional or inversely proportional to each another. </em>

Find the slope and y-intercept of 3y - 4x = 39
Alexus [3.1K]
<h2>Greetings!</h2><h3>Firstly, the slope is found by rearranging the formula:</h3>

3y = 4x + 39

y = \frac{4x}{3} + \frac{39}{3}

When x is 0, y = 0(x) +  \frac{39}{3}, so the y intercept is \frac{39}{3}

<h3>Next, the slope is simply the number in front of the x, </h3>

So  \frac{4x}{3} can be rearranged to  \frac{4}{3}x, so the slope would be \frac{4}{3}.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

x = \frac{4}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Winning Percentage = 0.444 repeating

Required

Represent as a fraction

Represent the percentage with x

x = 0.444

Convert to fraction

x = \frac{444}{1000}

Next step, is to convert to fraction repeating

To do this, we simply subtract 1 from the denominator

x = \frac{444}{1000 - 1}

x = \frac{444}{999}

Simplify to the lowest term: Divide numerator and denominator by 37

x = \frac{444/37}{999/37}

x = \frac{12}{27}

Simplify to the lowest term: Divide numerator and denominator by 3

x = \frac{12/3}{27/3}

x = \frac{4}{9}

Hence;

There winning fraction is \frac{4}{9}
