Translating into Variations

Statement
a Relationship Between Two Given
Quantities
Quarter 2 – MELC 2
LEARNING COMPETENCY
The learner illustrates situations that involve the
following variations:
(a) direct; (b) inverse; (c) joint; (d) combined.
A. DIRECT VARIATION

“y varies directly as x”
“y is directly proportional to x” and
“y is proportional to x” may be translated mathematically
as 𝒚 = 𝒌𝒙, where k is the constant of variation.

For two quantities x and y, an increase in x causes an


increase in y as well. Similarly, a decrease in x causes a
decrease in y.
Directions: Translates into variation statement the relationship
EXAMPLES between two quantities.

The table below shows the points earned by a Grade 8 class for every number of
kilograms of wastepaper collected.

No. of Kgs (n) 1 2 3 4 5 6


Points (P) 5 10 15 20 25 30

What is the variation statement between the two quantities?

Answer: The number of kilograms (n) varies directly as points (P).


EXAMPLES

2. 𝒇 = 𝒌𝒅, where f is the fare of a passenger & d is the distance

Answer: The fare f of a passenger varies directly as the distance


d of his destination.

TIME (T)
Directions: Write the following variation statement into mathematical
equation:
1. The cost C of fish varies directly as its weight w in kilograms.

𝑪 = 𝒌𝒘
2. An employee’s salary S varies directly as the number of days d he has worked.
𝑺 = 𝒌𝒅
3. The cost c varies directly as the number n of pencils.

𝒄 = 𝒌𝒏
B. INVERSE VARIATION

“y varies inversely as x”
“y is inversely proportional to x” and

Whenever the product of corresponding values of two


quantities is a constant, then one quantity varies
inversely as the other.
For two quantities x and y, an increase in x causes a
decrease in y or vice versa. We can say that y varies
inversely as the other. In symbols, 𝒙𝒚 = 𝒌 𝑜𝑟 𝒚 = 𝒌𝒙
Directions: Translates into variation statement the relationship
EXAMPLES between two quantities.

Speed in kph 40 50 60 70 80

What is the variation statement between the two quantities?

Answer: Time varies inversely as the speed.


EXAMPLES

2. 𝒌 = 𝒔
; where n is the number of pechay & s is the space between
them.

Answer: The number of pechay plants (n) in a row varies


inversely as the space (s) between them.

WIDTH (W)

Answer: The width (w) varies inversely as its length (l).


Directions: Translate the following variation statement into
mathematical equation.
1. The number of persons n needed to do a job varies inversely as the number of
days d to finish the job.
𝒌
𝒏 =

2. The rate r at which a person types a certain manuscript varies inversely as the
time t spent in typing.
𝒌
𝒓 =
𝒕
3. The cost c per person of renting a private resort varies inversely as the number
n of persons sharing the rent.
𝒌
𝒄 =
𝒏
C. JOINT VARIATION

If y varies directly as the product of x and z, that is, if there


𝒚
is a constant k such that y = kxz or 𝒌 = 𝒙𝒛, then y varies
jointly as x and z.
Direction: Translate the following variation statement into a
mathematical equation.
1. V varies jointly as l, w, and h.
𝑽
𝑽 = 𝒌𝒍𝒘𝒉 𝑜𝑟 𝒌 =
𝒍𝒘𝒉
2. The area A of a parallelogram varies jointly as the base b and altitude h.
𝑨
𝑨 = 𝒌𝒃𝒉 𝑜𝑟 𝒌 =
𝒃𝒉
3. The area A of a triangle varies jointly as the base b and altitude h

𝑨
𝑨 = 𝒌𝒃𝒉 𝑜𝑟 𝒌 =
𝒃𝒉
D. COMBINED VARIATION

This is the kind of variation that involves both the direct


and inverse variations.

The statement “z varies directly as x and inversely as y”


𝒌𝒙 𝒛𝒚
means 𝒛 = , or 𝒌 = , where k is the constant of
𝒚 𝒙
variation.
Directions: Translate the following variation statement into
mathematical equation.
a. T varies directly as a and inversely as b.
𝒌𝒂
𝑻=
𝒃
b. Y varies directly as x and inversely as the square of z.
𝒌𝒙
𝒀 = 𝟐

c. The electrical resistance R of a wire varies directly as its length l and inversely
as the square of its diameter d.
