Let's look at the given equation to identify this value.
y=-54x
The constant of variation is m=-54.
Slope of the Line
To find the slope, we will substitute the points shown in the graph into the Slope Formula.
m=x2−x1y2−y1
In this case, the given points are (0,0) and (-5,4). Note that when calculating slope, it does not matter which point you choose to use as (x1,y1) or (x2,y2).
