Question

PLEASE HELP SOMEONE!!!

1) what is the direct variation equation if y varies directly with X and Y equals -12 when x equals 6

Answer 1

y = -2x

Explanation:

For direct variation: y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Given that Y equals -12 when x equals 6, we have -12 = k(6). Solve this for k by dividing both sides by 6:

k = -12/6 => k = -2

Then the "direct variation equation" here is y = -2x.
