  2. Slope and Direct Variation A direct variation is described by an equation of the form y = kx, where k≠ 0 We say that y varies directly with x or y varies directly as x. In the equation, y = kx, kis the constant of variation. Slope and Direct Variation

  3. Slope formula Simplify. Slope and Constant of Variation Example 2-1a Name the constant ofvariation for the equation.Then find the slope of theline that passes through thepair of points. The constant of variation is 2. Answer: k = 2 and m = 2. Notice that the slope of the graph of y = kx is k. For a direct variation, the slope and constant of variation are identical.

  4. Slope formula Simplify. Slope and Constant of Variation Example 2-1b The constant of variation is – 4. Name the constant ofvariation for the equation.Then find the slope of theline that passes through thepair of points. Answer: k = – 4 and m = – 4. The ordered pair (0, 0) is a solution of y = kx. Therefore, the graph of y = kx passes through the origin. You can use this information to graph direct variation equations.

  5. Name the constant of variation for the equation. Then find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points. a. Slope and Constant of Variation Example 2-1c Answer: constant of variation: 4; slope: 4

  6. b. Slope and Constant of Variation Example 2-1d Name the constant of variation for the equation. Then find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points. Answer: constant of variation: –3; slope: –3 The ordered pair (0, 0) is a solution of y = kx. Therefore, the graph of y = kx passes through the origin. You can use this information to graph direct variation equations.

  7. Direct Variation with k > 0 Example 2-2a Step 1Write the slope as a ratio. Step 2Graph (0, 0). Step 3From the point (0, 0), move up 1 unit and right 1 unit. Draw a dot. Step 4Draw a line containing the points.

  8. Answer: Direct Variation with k > 0 Example 2-2b

  9. Direct Variation with k < 0 Example 2-3a Step 1Write the slope as a ratio. Step 2Graph (0, 0). Step 3From the point (0, 0), move down 3 units andright 2 units. Draw a dot. Step 4Draw a line containing the points.
