Question 10 • FL-1200330-Algebra 2 CR

Which of these statements are true for joint variations? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
There are at least two constants of proportionality.
B
The dependent variable is related to the product of the independent variables by a constant of proportionality, k.
C
The equation must have at least two independent variables.
D
The constant of proportionality is 1.

Explanation

In a joint variation, one variable varies directly as the product of two or more other variables. It is written as y = kxz (or a similar equation), where k is the constant of proportionality, so statement B is true. Because joint variation involves at least two independent variables, statement C is also true. There is one constant of proportionality, not necessarily 1, so A and D are false.
