Variation
Variation
-A change in the form,
position, condition or amount of
something.
-It is the act or process of
being varied.
-A change in one variable may
result to a significant change in the
other. 10

Direct Variation
There is a direct variation
whenever a situation produces pairs
of numbers in which their ratio is
constant.
The following statements are
used to illustrate direct variation:
y = kx
“y varies directly as x”
“y is directly
proportional to x” “y is
proportional to x” 16
