2. Direct Proportion All Around. Direct proportion applies to all of the situations below: In each of these examples two quantities are mentioned. Can you identify them in each example. Number of Mars bars.Cost of bars. Hours you work.Pay Dollars. Pounds. Area of sector.Angle of sector. The number of hours you work and the pay you earn. The number of dollars you get for your pounds on holiday. The number of mars bars you buy and the price you pay. Mars The area of a sector of a circle and the angle at the centre.

3. The Finding One Method. Example 1. If it costs 85p for 5 Mars bars, what is the cost of 3 Mars bars ? Solution. Find the cost of 1 Mars bar. Cost of 1 mars bar : 85  5 = 17 p Find the cost of 3 Mars bars.Cost of 3 Mars bars. 17 x 3 = 51p 3 Mars bars cost 51p.

4. Example 2. If you are paid £261 for 18 hours work, how much will you be paid for 23 hours work ? Solution. Find the pay for 1 hour. I hours pay 261  18 = £ 14.50 Calculate 23 hours pay. 14.5 x 23 = 333.5 You are paid £333.50 for 23 hours work.

5. Example 3. It takes a production line 90 hours to make 120 cars. How long does it take to make 330 cars ? Solution. Calculate the time to make 1 car.Time for 1 car. 90  120 = 0.75 hours. Note :0.75 hours = 45 minutes. Calculate the time to make 330 cars. 0.75 x 330 = 247.5 hours It takes 247 hours and 30 minutes to make 330 cars.

6. What Goes In The Box ? Calculate the following: (1) It costs £21.06 for a hotel to buy 27 boxes of cereal. How much will 35 boxes cost at the same price per box ? (2) 35 cars are produced in 87.5 hors by a car factory. How long will it take to produce 142 cars at the same rate of working ? (3) If you earn £139.20 for 16 hours of work, what will you earn for 9 hours work paid at the same rate ? £27.30 355 hours £78.30

7. The Cross-Multiplication Method. This method is a more sophisticated way of solving direct proportion questions but it has two advantages: It establishes a very strong routine to solve the problems. It makes Inverse Proportion questions easier to handle. Think back to the Mars Bar problem and answer the following questions: If you have twice as many Mars Bars what happens to the price ? The price doubles. If you have three times as many Mars Bars what happens to the price? The price trebles. What about ten times the number of Mars Bars?Ten times the price.

8. Key Point. Whenever you have two quantities and when one is doubled or trebled etc the other quantity doubles or trebles etc, then you have direct proportion. The problem can then be solved by the method demonstrated in the following slides.

9. Example 1. If you are paid £ 190.21 for 23 hours work, then what is your pay for 17 hours work ? Solution. Identify the two quantities being talked about: PayHours Identify the two amounts that go together. 190.2123 Ask yourself “ If the first quantity is doubled, trebled etc, what happens to the second quantity ? It doubles, trebles etc also. Determine what is being asked for and what other info’ you have. P17 Cross multiply to solve. Use arrows.. 23 x p =17 x 190.21 p = £140.59 for 17 hours.

10. Example 2. If 5 hectares of wheat take 12 hours to harvest, how long will 27 hectares take ? Identify the two quantities being talked about: HectaresTime Identify the two amounts that go together. 512 Determine what is being asked for and what other info’ you have. 27T Ask yourself “ If the first quantity is doubled, trebled etc, what happens to the second quantity ? It doubles, trebles etc also. Use arrows.. Cross multiply to solve. 5 27 = 12 T 5 X T = 12 x 27 T = 12 x 27 5 T = 64.8 hours = 6hr 48min

11. Example 3. Find the area of the sector OAB of this circle if angle AOB is 100 o Solution. 100 o O AB 5cm Find the area of the whole circle. A =  r 2 A = 3.14 x 5 x 5 A = 78.5cm 2 Now decide on the two quantities in the problem: AreaAngle What angle goes with 78.5cm 2 ? 78.5360 o Add the other information: A100 o Cross multiply and solve: A = 21.8cm 2 ( to 1 d.p) If you double treble etc the angle what happens to the area ?

12. Example 3. 172 o O A B 12cm Calculate the arc length AB on this circle. Solution. Find the circumference of the circle. C = 2  r C = 2 x 3.14 x 12 C = 75.36 cm Now decide on the two quantities in the problem: Arc Length Angle What angle goes with 75.36cm ? 75.36360 o A 172 o If you double treble etc the angle what happens to the arc length ? Cross multiply and solve: A = 36cm (to 1 d.p)

13. What Goes In The Box ? 2 (1) The shadow of a tree 7.4m high is 10.6m. How long will the shadow of a tree 8.9m high be at the same time ? (2) Calculate the area of the sector AOB.100 o O A B 23cm (3) Calculate the arc length AB. (4) You get 14 out of 23 in a test. What would you get out of 100 for the same test score ? 12.7m 461.4cm 2 to 1 d.p 40.1cm to 1 d.p 60.9% to 1 d.p

14. Graphs Of Direct Proportion. Consider the following Direct Proportion situation : It takes 2 hours for a company to manufacture each ladder that it makes: Complete the table below: Ladders012345 Hours 0246810 Now draw a graph of the above table:

15. 0 24681012 2 4 6 8 10 No of ladders. Hours Graph Of Ladders Made against Time Taken.

16. L T o Key Fact. All Direct Proportion graphs are straight line graphs passing through the origin: Look at the table of values again: Ladders012345 Hours 0246810 If you divide the number of hours by the given number of ladders, what do you find each time ? ( Hours divided by ladders) The answer is 2 every time. We only need one point on the table to complete the whole table.
