The value of constant of variation “k” is
Solution:
Given that the direct variation is:
y = kx —– eqn 1
Where “k” is the constant of variation
Given that the point is (5, 8)
To find the value of “k” , substitute (x, y) = (5, 8) in eqn 1
Thus the value of constant of variation “k” is k = 8/5 or 1.6
I hope this is correct and helps!
