What is the constant of variation, k, of the direct variation, y = kx, through (–3, 2)?

To solve for this, use your points to plug them into the x and y values knowing that the x value in the point is -3 and the y value is 2. When you plug in the points, you should get this:

2=k(-3)

Then, because the question asks to solve for the constant of variation, or k, divide both sides by -3 to solve for k. This would get you to your answer,

k=-2/3

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
