3. Lesson Proper
The activity you’ve done is connected to
the topic for today which is “Direct
Variation”.
Direct Variation – when a situation
produces pairs of numbers in which their
ratio is constant.
The mathematical formula of Direct
Variation,
y=kx, where x - independent variable
y – dependent variable
k – constant of variation
can be translated in mathematical
statements;
“y varies directly as x”
“y is directly proportional to x”
“y is proportional to x”
For 2 quantities, x and y, an increase in x
causes an increase in y as well. Similarly, a
decrease in x causes a decrease in y.
Suppose we have the equations, its table of
values and graphs:
y=4x

From the 3 equations which do you think
is/are the example/s of a direct variation?
Why?
y=4x and y=-2x, because it’s in the form
of y=kx, while y=2x+3 is not an example
of direct variation.
Correct! This is in the form of slopeintercept form y=mx+b, where m is the
slope and b is the y-intercept.
How about y=4x and y=-2x, is it in a form
of slope-intercept form? Why?
Yes. It is in the form of y=mx+b, but its yintercept/b is zero.
Correct! Therefore, direct variation is
simply in a slope-intercept form when b/yintercept is zero. So, in y=4x and y=-2x,
their y=intercepts are zero and their slope
are 4 and -2, similarly the slope determines
the constant of variation.
Do you get it?
Yes!
From the given 3 graphs, how do you
determine if it expresses a direct variation?
The graph should have the same slope and
always crosses the origin (0,0)
Correct!
Graph of y=4x: Expresses Direct Variation
Graph of y=-2: Expresses Direct Variation
Graph of y=2x+3: Do not expresses Direct
Variation
From the given 3 table of values, how do
you determine if it expresses a direct
variation?
Correct! But when the value of x is zero the
value of y will always be zero and its ratio
will always be zero. If you take a look in its
graph, the graph of y=4 and y=-2 crosses
the origin (0,0).
Get the ratio of y and x in each column. If
it is the same/equal then there is a constant
of variation and the table of values express
a direct variation.
y=4x
Get the ratio of y and x in each table of
values to determine if it expresses a direct
variation.

Do not expresses direct variation
Now, how do you solve the given word
problem which expresses a direct variation
Example #1
If y varies directly as x and y=24 when x=6,
find the variation constant and the equation
of variation.
Solution:
Express “y varies directly as x” as y=kx
Solve for k by substituting the given values
in the equation.
y = kx
24 = 6k
k = 4 – constant of variation
Substituting 4 to k in y=kx,
y = 4x – equation of variation
Example #2
The table below shows that the distance d
varies directly as the time t. Find the
constant of variation and the equation
which describes the relation.
Time (hr.)
1 2 3 4 5
Distance (km)
10 20 30 40 50
Solution:
Since the distance d varies directly as the
time t, then d=kt. Using one of the pairs of
values, (2, 20), from the table, substitute the
values of d and t in d=kt and solve for k.
d = kt
20 = 2k
k = 10 – constant of variation
y = kt
y = 10t – equation of the variation
Example #3
If x varies directly as y and x=35 when y=7,
what is the value of y when x=25?
Solution:
x = ky
35 = 7k
k = 5 – constant of variation
x = ky
25 = 5y
y=5
Other solution by proportion, Since x/y is a
constant, we write k=x/y, from here we can
𝑥
𝑥
obtain a proportion 𝑦1 = 𝑦2 .

x1 = 35
y1 = 7
x2 = 25
y2 = ?

we obtain the same answer.
Example #4 (Drill/Board work)
I. In each of the following, y varies
directly as x. Find the values as
indicated.
1. Find the constant of a direct
variation when x = 6 and y = -30.
2. If the constant variation is -4, then
what is the value of y when x = -6?
3. If y=3 when x=15, find x when
y = 5.
4. If y = -8 when x = -2, find x when
y = 32.
II. The distance traveled varies directly
with the time of travel. If the distance
traveled is 250 meters in 25 seconds,
find the distance traveled in 60 seconds.
k = -5
y = 24
k=1/5, x=25
k=4, x=8
d = kt
250 = 25k
k = 10
d = kt
d = 10y
d = 10(60)
d = 600 meters
