Question

Is the equation `y=3/x` a direct variation, if so what is the constant of variation?

Answer 1

`"see explanation"`

Explanation:

`"a direct variation equation has the form"`

`•color(white)(x)y=kxlarrcolor(blue)"k is the constant of variation"`

`"an inverse variation equation has the form"`

`•color(white)(x)y=k/xlarrcolor(blue)"k is the constant of variation"`

`y=3/x" represents inverse variation with "k=3`
