1 Direct Variation & Inverse Variation (SOL A.8) Chapters 5-2 & 11-6

2 Direct Variation If the ratio between two variables is a constant, than a direct variation exists. A direct variation can be written in the form of y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.

3 Inverse Variation Is the product of two variables is a constant, then an inverse variation exists. An inverse variation can be written in the form y = k/x or xy = k.

4 Examples of Direct Variations 7y = 2x 3y + 4x = 8

5 Your Turn Does the following represent a direct variation? If so, find the constant of variation. 4x + 5y = 0

6 Writing an equation for a direct variation First thing----find the constant of variation k using, an ordered pair, other than (0, 0), that you know is a solution of the equation. Look at Problem 2 on page 300 in your textbook.

7 Graphing a Direct Variation Problem 3 on page 300

8 Graphs of Direct Variations

9 Writing a Direct Variation from a Table

10 Moving on to Inverse Variation An equation of the form xy = k or y = k/x, where k ≠ 0, is an inverse variation. The constant of variataion for an inverse variation is k, the product x ∙ y for an ordered pair (x, y) that satisfies the inverse variation.
