KUDOs Know-vocab Direct variationslope Variation constant Understand how to identify if a relationship is a direct variation. Understand how to find the variation constant given two points. Do-Identify if a function is a direct variation. Find the variation constant. Apply these concepts to solve real world situations.
Warm up 1. What form is this equation in? Graph it. Y-3 = -2(x + 4) 2. What form is this equation in? Graph it. 2x – 4y = -8
Direct Variation Direct Variation is y = kx The line passes through the origin, and k is the slope. How can y = kx be re-written to find k?
Using a Table Does y vary directly with x in the following examples? xy xy
Using Equations Does y vary directly with x in the following equations? 1.4y = 24x 2.y = x - 2
