2 1.4 Direct Variation and Proportion Objectives: Write and apply direct variation equations. Write and solve proportions. Standard: 2.8.11.P Analyze a relation to determine whether a direct or inverse variation exists and represent it algebraically and graphically.

3 I. Determine whether each equation describes a direct variation. Direct Variation - The variable y varies directly as x. y = kx is known as a direct-variation equation. k is called the constant of variation. y = 2x yes y = ½ x yes y = 2x + 1 no y = 3/x no

4 II. y varies directly as x. Find the constant of variation, k, and write an equation of direct variation that relates the two variables, y = kx. Ex 1. y = -24 when x = 4 Ex 2. y = -16 when x= 2 Ex 3. y = 1 when x = ½

5 III. y varies directly as x. Ex. 1 If y is 2.8 when x is 7, find y when x is -4. Ex. 2 If y is 6.3 when x is 70, find y when x is 5.4. *

6 III. y varies directly as x. Ex. 3 If y is -5 when x is 2.5, find y when x is 6. *

7 IV. Use a direct variation equation to solve each word problem. Ex 1. If 6 tickets cost $72, find the cost of 10 tickets. * 72 = k (6) 12 = k y = 12 (10) y = 120 Ex 2. If 3 CDs on sale cost $18, find the cost of 12 CDs. * Ex 3. If 8 sodas cost $3.20, find the cost of 20 sodas. *

8 IV. Use a direct variation equation to solve each word problem. Ex 4. Each day Jon rides his bicycle for exercise. When traveling a constant rate, he rides 4 miles in about 20 minutes. At this rate, how long would it take Jon to travel 7 miles? Recall that distance, d, rate, r, and elapsed time, t, are related by the equation d = rt. * Rate = 4 miles/20 minutes = 1/5 miles per minute d = 1/5 t 7 = 1/5 t 35 = t

9 V. Proportions If y varies directly with x, then y is proportional to x. A proportion is a statement that two ratios are equal. A ratio is the comparison of 2 quantities by division. A proportion of the form a = c can be rearranged as follows: b d a = c b d a  bd = c  bd b d ad = bc

10 V. Proportions * Cross-Product Property of Property of Proportion For b  0 and d  0: If a = c, then ad = bc. b d * In a proportion of the form a/b = c/d; a and d are the extremes and b and c are the means. * By the Cross-Product Property, the product of the extremes equals the product of the means.

11 V. Proportions Ex 1. w = 10 4 12 Ex 2. 3 = x* 5 2

12 V. Proportions Ex 3. 3x –1 = x * 5 2
