Direct Variation. y = mx (no b) Lines that go through the origin Y intercept of zero Slope also called constant of variation (variation constant). Examples of Direct Variation y = -2x y = 2x. Checking for Direct Variation Graph --> is it a straight line through the origin?

Direct Variation • y = mx (no b) • Lines that go through the origin • Y intercept of zero • Slope also called constant of variation (variation constant)
Checking for Direct Variation Graph --> is it a straight line through the origin? Equation --> does it fit y = mx? (may need to solve for y)
Are these equations direct variation? y = 5x y = -3/4x y = -2x - 7
Are these equations direct variation? y = 5x --> Yes! y = -3/4x --> Yes! y = -2x - 7 --> No (y-int not 0)
Are these equations direct variation? 2x + y = 0 -x + y = -1 4x - 5y = 0
Are these equations direct variation? 2x + y = 0 --> y = -2x --> YES -x + y = -1 --> y = x - 1 --> NO 4x - 5y = 0 --> y = 4/5x --> YES
