Question

Find the constant of variation k for the direct variation. 4x = –6y

Answer 1

Answer:

either -6/4 or -4/6 I thing it's -4/6 or 2/3 im not to sure

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The constant k is equal to $-(2/3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In this problem we have

$4x=-6y$

Isolate the variable y

$y=-(4/6)x$

Simplify

$y=-(2/3)x$

In a direct variation the constant k is equal to the slope of the line

$m=k=-(2/3)$
