REVIEW:

Make a table of values of the given graph below.


What happen to the values of y as x increases?
Mrs. Karis April A. Macaranas
There is a direct variation whenever a situation
produces pairs of numbers in which the ratio is
constant. This can be expressed into mathematical
𝑦
statement or equation as 𝑦 = 𝑘𝑥 , where 𝑘 = is the
𝑥
constant of variation or constant of proportionality.
These statements can be:
“y varies directly as x”
“y is directly proportional to x” and
“y is proportional to x”
These statements mean that for two quantities, x, and
y, an increase in x causes an increase in y as Well.
Similarly, a decrease in nx causes a decrease in y.
Example 1:
Using his bicycle, Kyle travels a distance of 10
kilometers per hour on a steep road.
Time(t) in hr 1 2 3 4 5
Distance(d) in km 10 20 30 40 50
1. Show the distance(𝑑) varies directly as time(𝑡)
2. Draw the graph of 𝑑 against 𝑡 .
3. Write an equation showing the relationship
between 𝑑 and 𝑡 .
1
4. How far Kyle travelled after 8 hours and 10
2
hours?
Example 2:
Write an equation for the following
statements.
1. The fare F of a passenger varies
directly as the distance d of his
destination.
𝐹 = 𝑘𝑑
2.The weight W of an object is directly
proportional to its mass m.
W = 𝑘𝑚
Example 3:
If 𝑦 varies directly as 𝑥 , and 𝑦 = 24 when
𝑥 = 6, find the variation constant and
the equation of variation.

Example 4:
Find the constant of variation and the
equation of variation in which 𝑦 varies
directly as 𝑥 , and 𝑦 = 51 when 𝑥 = 3.
