  1. A3 3.7 Direct and Indirect Variation Homework: p. 430-431 1-29 odd

  2. Direct Variation K= constant of variation, the same for an entire data set Graph: Words: y varies directly with x y is directly proportional to x

  3. Direct Variation Example The volume of blood, B, in a person’s body varies directlyas body weight, W. A person who weighs 160 pounds has approximately 5 quarts of blood. Estimate the number of quarts of blood on a person who weighs 200 lbs.

  4. another direct variation…with a twist! The distance, S, that a body falls from rest varies directlyas the square of time, t, of the fall. If skydivers fall 64 feet in 2 seconds, how far will they fall in 4.5 seconds?

  5. Inverse Variation K = constant of variation, still the same for the entire data set! Graph: Words: y varies inversely as x y is inversely proportional to x

  6. Inverse Variation Example The length of a violin string varies inverselyas the frequency of its vibrations. A violin string 8 inches long vibrates at a frequency of 640 cycles per second. What is the frequency of a 10-inch string?

  7. another variation example with a new twist! The force of gravitation, F, between two bodies varies jointly as the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of the distance between them. G is the gravitational constant.

  8. Last cool example of variation… The volume of a cone, V, varies jointly as its height, h, and the square of its radius. A cone with a radius measuring 6 feet and a height measuring 10 feet has a volume of cubic feet. Find the volume of a cone having a radius of 12 feet and a height if 2 feet.

  9. White board equation writing! Write all equations, then solve for y! • X varies jointly as Y and the square of Z • X varies directly as the cube root of Z and inversely as Y • X varies jointly as Z and the difference between Y and W.
