VOCABULARY

Direct variation

Constant of variation

Tell whether the equation represents direct variation. If so, identify the constant of variation.

a. 4x 1 2y 5 0 b. 22x 1 y 5 3

SolutionTo tell whether an equation represents direct variation, try to rewrite the equation in the form y 5 ax.

a. 4x 1 2y 5 0 Write original equation.

2y 5 Subtract from each side.

y 5 Simplify.

Because the equation 4x 1 2y 5 0 be rewritten in the form y 5 ax, it direct variation. The constant of variation is .

b. 22x 1 y 5 3 Write original equation.

y 5 1 3 Add to each side.

Because the equation 22x 1 y 5 3 be rewritten in the form y 5 ax, it direct variation.

4.6 Model Direct VariationGoal p Write and graph direct variation equations.

VOCABULARY

Direct variation The relationship of two variables, x and y, provided y 5 ax and a Þ 0

Constant of variation In y 5 ax, a is called the constant of variation.

Tell whether the equation represents direct variation. If so, identify the constant of variation.

a. 4x 1 2y 5 0 b. 22x 1 y 5 3

SolutionTo tell whether an equation represents direct variation, try to rewrite the equation in the form y 5 ax.

a. 4x 1 2y 5 0 Write original equation.

2y 5 24x Subtract 4x from each side.

y 5 22x Simplify.

Because the equation 4x 1 2y 5 0 can be rewritten in the form y 5 ax, it represents direct variation. The constant of variation is 22 .

b. 22x 1 y 5 3 Write original equation.

y 5 2x 1 3 Add 2x to each side.

Because the equation 22x 1 y 5 3 cannot be rewritten in the form y 5 ax, it does not represent direct variation.
