I can write and graph an equation of a direct variation.
Direct Variation
Identifying a Direct Variation
Graphing a Direct Variation Solve for the constant of variation. Write an equation. Make a table of values. Graph the ordered pairs. Connect the points if necessary. The line always passes through (0,0)
Writing a Direct Variation Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = 35 when x = 5. What direct variation equation relates x and y? A direct variation is of the form: y = kx So, 35 = k(5) Solve for k by division: 7 = k Write an equation using 7 for k: y = 7x
