Determine the constant of varlation for the direct variation glven. Rvaries directly with S. When S is 16, R Is 80.

The constant of variation is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

In direct variation, as y varies directly with x, the standard equation is

y = kx,

where k is the constant of variation.

In your case, we use R and S. R varies directly with S, so we have

R = kS

We know that when S = 16, R is 80, so we plug in those values and solve for k, the constant of variation.

R = kS

80 = k(16)

k = 80/16

k = 5
