Given the equation y/x = 2/3, the constant of variation is: whats the answer and how do you do it

i believe u just have to corss multiple in order to get answer

y/x = 2/3

2x = 3y

x = 3y/2

Hope this helps write back if u don't get it.

The constant ratio is called the constant of variation. The formula for direct variation is y = kx, where k is the constant of variation. ...

y/x = 2/3
therefore
y = 2/3 (x)

k is therefore 2/3

The constant of variation is 2/3

i agreed with ywally but my comment should have been:
y=kx is the correct form
