Question

solve the equation for the y value choose whatever it's direct variation (y=kx) or inverse variation (y=k\x 2 y=3x

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

We are given an equation as shown below;

`2y=3x`

Required;

We are required to determine if this is a direct variation or an inverse variation.

Step-by-step solution;

To solve for the variable y,

`2y=3x`
`\begin{gathered} Divide\text{ }both\text{ }sides\text{ }by\text{ }2: \\ (2y)/(2)=(3x)/(2) \end{gathered}`
`y=(3)/(2)x`

ANSWER:

This is a direct variation.

Note that the constant value, 3/2 is the constant of variation.

The third option is the correct answer.
