When two variables are related in such a way that the ratio of their values remains the same, the two variables are said to be in direct variation. i) y/x=k for some constant k. Here k is called the constant of proportionality. Example: If y varies directly as x, and y = 10 when x = 7, find the constant of proportionality. Use y/x=k 10/7=k The constant of proportionality is 10/7 ii) y1/x1=y2/x2, this translation is used when the desired result is either an original or new value of x or y. If y varies directly as x, and y = 10 when x = 7, find y when x = 12. Use y1/x1=y2/x2 10/7=y/12 Apply the cross products rule. 120/7=y read less
