Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k*x                    This is the formula for a direct variation.

  • y = 20
  • x = 4                        Substitute these values into the direct variation

20 = 4 * k                        Divide by 4

20/4 = 4k/4

k = 5

Answer: the constant of variation is 5
