The equation 15x + 5y = 0  is a direct variation and the constant of variation is -3 while the equation -5x + 8y = 3 is neither a direct variation nor an inverse variation

How to categorize the type of each equation?

As a general rule, we have the following forms of equation:

Direct variation: y =kx

Inverse variation: y = k/x

Where k represents the constant of variation

The equations 15x + 5y = 0 can be rewritten as:

5y = -15x

Divide by 5

y = -3x

The above equation take the form y = kx

This means that k = -3

Hence, the equation 15x + 5y = 0  is a direct variation and the constant of variation is -3

However, the equation -5x + 8y = 3 do not take any of the given forms

Hence, the equation -5x + 8y = 3 is neither a direct variation nor an inverse variation
