DIRECT VARIATION By Tristen Billerbeck

DIRECT VARIATION Equation: The equation y = ax represents direct variation between x and y is said to vary directly with x. The nonzero constant a is called the constant of variation. Graph: The graph of a direct variation equation y = ax is a line with slope a and y-intercept (0, 0). The family of direct variation graphs consists of lines through the origin, such as those shown.

EXAMPLE 1 Write and graph a direct variation equation that has a solution of (3, 9). Solution: y = ax 9 = a(3) 3 a = 3 Therefore: y = 3x

EXAMPLE 2 Hooke’s Law states that the distance d a spring stretches varies directly with the force f that is applied to it. Suppose a spring stretches 25 inches when a force of 15 pounds is applied. What is the equation that relates d to f? d = (25 inches)f (15 pounds) Therefore: d = 5/3f What distance will the spring stretch if 18 pounds is applied? d = 5(18) 3 d = 30 inches

EXAMPLE 3 If a waitress receives a $4.50 tip for a bill of $30, what is the direct variation (or tip percentage)? $4.50 = a($30) Divide each side by $30. a = 0.15 (which is a 15% tip) Therefore the equation for a 15% tip is y = (.15)x. What tip would the waitress make on a bill for $45? y = (.15)($45) y = $6.75

EXAMPLE 4 Given the following table for the slope of a hillside from a home that is perched in the middle of it: Ratio undefined 2 22 (Direct Variation) Set up the ratios of y/x (which is the constant of variation, if it’s the same). If the ratios are the same, then this is a direct variation. If the ratios are not the same, then this is not a direct variation. y x
