Answer: B. No

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation has the following form:

$y=kx$

Where the constant of variation is "k".

By definition, in direct variation, when the variable "x" changes, tha variable "y" changes in proportion to the variable "x".

As you can observe in the table, when the value of the variable "x" increase, the values of the variable "y" decrease, therefore we can conclude that it is not a direct variation.

Then the answer is the option B.

write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that is perpendicular to y=-1/4x+2 and passes through the points (-4,3)

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1, and in this case:

-m/4=-1

-m=-4

m=4, so the slope of the perpendicular line is 4 so we have thus far:

y=4x+b, using point (-4,3) we can solve for the y-intercept, "b"

3=4(-4)+b

3=-16+b

19=b, so our line is:

y=4x+19
