Answer:

constant of variation = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 2 when x = 4

k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Answer:

The constant of variation is 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx where k is the constant of variation.

So k = y/x = 2/4 = 1/2.
