If y varies as x, and y is 20 when x is 4, what is the constant of variation for the relation?
2 answers:
Y = kx
so
k = y/x
<span>y is 20 when x is 4
k = 20/4 = 5
Answer
The </span><span>constant of variation for the relation = 5</span>
Hi there!
y ∝ x
∴ y = kx ---(i)
Where " k " is the constant of variation & k ≠ 0
Now to determine " k ".
Use the given condition that when :
• x = 4
• y = 20
Substitute th' respective values in Eqn. (i) :-
y = kx
⇒ 20 = k(4)
⇒ 4k = 20
⇒ k =

= 5
Hence,
The constant of variation for the relation is 5
~ Hope it helps!

Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
false
Step-by-step explanation:
5+2=15÷(3+2)
5+2=15÷5
7=15÷5
7=3
false because they are different
1/4=2/8 and 3/4=6/8... common denominator
2/8+5/8+1/8+2/8+2/8+2/8+6/8+6/8=26/8=13/4=3 1/4
