DESCRIPTION
Well, what is direct variation? It’s in the form y=kx, and k=0. we say y varies directly with x, or y is proportionate to x. The k is what relates them, it is the multiplier. k is the same number all the time, it is constant. And so, it is the same as slope. When you graph direct variation, notice the x and y-intercepts are both zero. It graphs through the origin.TRANSCRIPT

By the end of this… You should know what direct variation is,
why it is important, and how you could use it.
You should know what direct variation and slope have in common.
You should be able to answer questions relating y and x, and use equations in direct variation to your advantage when graphing problems.

Well, what is direct variation? It’s in the form y=kx, and k=0. we say y
varies directly with x, or y is proportionate to x. The k is what relates them, it is the multiplier.
k is the same number all the time, it is constant. And so, it is the same as slope.
When you graph direct variation, notice the x and y-intercepts are both zero. It graphs through the origin.

These lines can be written as an equation in y = kx form:
y = y = -3x

The slope is The slope is
y = y = x

Try working it another way. graph the following. Where would you start?
y = 2x and y =

You can find the constant by knowing what y and x are: If y is 35 when x is
7, what equation could you write? Remember y is the total.

You can find the constant by knowing what y and x are: If y is 35 when x is
7, what equation could you write? Remember y is the total.
y = kx y = 7x
Now that you have the equation in direct variation form, you can plug in something for x and solve for y.
If x = 6 solve for y.

y = kx y = 7x
Now that you have the equation in direct variation form, you can plug in something for x and solve for y.
If x = 6 solve for y.y = 7xy = 7(6) y = 42
