Which equation represents a direct variation? y = 2х y=x+4 y= 1/2x y=3/x

Answer:option 1 and option 2 represents a direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct variation is one in which, as one variable increases in value, the other variable increases in value. Also as one variable decreases in value, the other variable decreases in value.

Looking at the options,

1) y = 2х

When x = 2, y = 2×2 = 4

When x = 3, y = 2×3 = 6

Therefore, y = 2x is a direct variation.

2) y=x+4

When x = 2, y = 2 + 4 = 6

When x = 3, y = 3 + 4 = 7

Therefore, y = x + 4 is a direct variation.

3) y= 1/2x

When x = 2, y = 1/2×2 = 1/4 = 0.25

When x = 3, y = 1/2×3 = 1/6 = 0.17

Therefore, y = 1/2x is not a direct variation.

4) y = 3/x

When x = 2, y = 3/2 = 1.5

When x = 3, y = 3/3 = 1

Therefore, y = 3/x is not a direct variation.

How do you do this problem?i
Mkey [24]
I'll solve B, and then challenge you to do A and C on your own!

If the line passes through (-3,4) and (5, -4), then the slope is the change in y over the change in x, which is (4-(-4))/(-3-5)=8/-8=-1 in this scenario, meaning that in the equation y=mx+b (with m as the slope), we have y=-x+b so far.Note that we only have to find b, as y and x can stay as variables. Plugging (-3,4) in for y and x (to find B), we get 4=-(-3)+b=3+b. Subtracting 3 from both sides, we get b=1 and the equation being y=-x+1

A cell phone company charges a monthly fee of $50 for 300 minutes. Each addition minute costs $0.05. Determine if the function i
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

linear

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph would be linear since it's .05 every minute, which would mean that every minute it would cost .05 --> adding up minutes. The flat fee at the beginning is trying to trick you up, don't get fooled ;)
