Question 3

Answer: y = -6x + 2

m = y_2 - y_1
/ x_2 - x_1

-10 - 8
/ 2 - (-1)

= -18/3 = -6

m (slope) = -6

y = mx + b
y = -6x +b

Find b using (-1,8)
y = -6x +b
8 = -6(-1) + b
8 = 6 + b
-6 -6
2 = b

Final answer: y = -6x + 2

To check using one of the points: (-1,8) or (2,-10)
y = -6x + 2
-10 = -6(2) + 2
-10 = -12 + 2
-10 = -10
This is a true statement.

Write an appropriate direct variation equation if y = 18 when x = 2

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

$y=9x$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In this problem we have

y=18 when x=2

Find the value of the constant of proportionality k

$k=\frac{y}{x}$ ----> $k=\frac{18}{2}=9$

therefore

The equation is equal to

$y=9x$
