The following equation is written in standard form. Translate it into slope- intercept form by solving for y. Is it a direct variation? If so, find the constant of variation. If not, explain why it isn't. -3x + 6y = -6
y = (1/2)x -1 Not a direct variation because it does not match the form y=kx because of the -1.
