Write an equation of the direct variation that includes the given point (-8, -4)
Direct variation is y= kx for some constant k
Find k using the point (-8,-4)
y=kx
(-4)=k(-8) substitution
-4/-8=k(-8/-8) division property
1/2=k
equation of direct variation is y=1/2k
3/6 is bigger because it simplifies to 1/2 and 3/8 is below 1/2.
Answer:
13/30
Step-by-step:
First, you find the common denominator, which is 30. For the first fraction, multiply the bottom by five. Since you do that, you have to multiple the top by 5 as well, giving you 25/30. For the second problem, you multiple the top and bottom by six giving you 12/30. 25 minus 12 is 13 so you get 13/30.
