What is the direct variation equation for the table of ordered pairs?

X Y

20 24

30 36

40 48

The equation for the direct variation is y = 1.2x

In order to find this, we start with the base for any direct variation equation.

y = kx.

Now we use the ordered pairs to find the value of k to model the equation.

y = kx

24 = k (20)

1.2 = k

Now that we know this, we can model the equation as y = 1.2x and test for the other values - - - each of which work in the newly written equation.

its actually 0.8x
