I am taking AP Physics and these are two of the summer problems, could you please answer.
Show that if x varies directly as y, the y varies directly as x. The second problem is if a varies directly with c and b varies directly as c, show that a+b varies directly as c.
Thank You!

If x varies directly as y → x = k*y (where k is any constant, generally [FONT=MathJax_Main]≠[/FONT][FONT=MathJax_Main]0[/FONT])
Now continue....
Im sorry the problem does not need trig and geo. I got the part but what about "then y varies as x" how do i show that. It was apart of the same question
If you did get that part - why did not you tell us first time?
Now express 'y' in terms of 'x' from the equation i.e. y = ?
What do you get? What does it tell you??
Sorry. I did jot mean to make you upset. The question states "Show that if x varies directly as y, then y varies directly as x". I undersand x=yk, however, how do you prove the then because if you put y in term of k that would be indirect variation.
