Direct, Inverse & Joint Variation
Direct Variation The variables x & y vary directly: Direct Divide BIGGER
Direct Variation The variables x & y vary directly. Write an equation that relates x and y if x = 6 when y = 8. Then find x when y = 12.
Inverse Variation The variables x & y vary inversely: Inverse Multiply BIGGER SMALLER
Direct Variation The variables x & y vary inversely. Write an equation that relates x and y if x = 3 when y = 12. Then find y when x = 9.
Determine whether x and y show direct variation, inverse variation, or neither. xy DirectInverse
Determine whether x and y show direct variation, inverse variation, or neither. xy DirectInverse
Determine whether x and y show direct variation, inverse variation, or neither. xy DirectInverse NEITHER
Joint Variation The variable x varies jointly with y and z: directly
Joint Variation The variable z varies jointly with x & y. Write an equation that relates x, y, and z if x = 3, y = 7 and z = 8. Then find z when x = 9 and y = 4.
Write an equation for the relationship: y varies directly with x and inversely with z.
Write an equation for the relationship: a varies inversely with b and jointly with c and d.
Write an equation for the relationship: a varies directly with b and jointly with c and d.
