 5. Which of the following table values illustrates direct variation?
a. c.
x 1 2 3 4 5 x 2 4 5 4 5

Direct Variations
The value of y varies directly with the value of x if there exists a nonzero constant k such that y=kx or
equivalent to y/x =k. The constant k is called the constant of variation.

EXAMPLE 1:
The table below shows the number of hours (t) traveled and the distance (y) traveled by a car.
Numbers of hours traveled (t) 1 2 3 4 5
Distance in km covered (y) 40 80 120 160 200
a. Show that y varies directly as t.
b. Draw the graph of y against t.
c. Write the equation showing the relationship between y and t.
d. Find y when t=1.5 and t=4.25.
e. Find t when y=140 and y=260.

SOLUTION:

a.
t 1 2 3 4 5
y 40 80 120 160 200
40 40 40 40 40

Because y/t =40 is a constant, y varies directly as t.

c. Because y/t = 40, the equation relating

y and t is y=40t

d. When t=1.5 When t=4.25 e. When y=140 When y=260

y=40t y=40(4.25) 140=40t 40t=260
y=40(1.5) y=170 3.5=t 6.5=t
y=60

EXAMPLE 2:
A worker’s pay check (P) varies directly as the number of hours (h) worked. For working 20 hours, the
payment is P 1,000.00. Find the payment for 45 hours of work.

SOLUTION:
Method 1: Method 2:
Because h and P are in direct proportion, Because h and P are in direct proportion,
P=kh, where k is a constant
When h=20, P=1,000
1,000=k20 Let h1=20, P1=1,000, and h2=45.
𝟏,𝟎𝟎𝟎 Substitute these values into the proportion.
=k
𝟐𝟎
50=k
Thus, P=50h 1,000(45)
𝑃2 =
20
When h=45, P2=2,250
P=50(45) Thus, when h=45 hours, then P=₱2, 250.00.
P=2,250
=₱2,250

The value o f k is ₱2,250.00 is the

the rate per hour amount paid for
of the worker. working 45 hours.

EXAMPLE 3:
Use a graph to find the value of velocity, v in ft./s, of a falling body when the given time t is 5 seconds.
Use the variation equation v=10t.

SOLUTION:
The related graph is a line. Therefore, we need only two points to construct it. To get these two points, let
us assign two values for it. If t=1, then by substitution, v=10(1) or v=10. If t=2, then by substitution,
v=10(2) or v=20. Hence, the coordinates of the points are (1, 10) and (2, 20), respectively. The graph is
shown below.

To get the value of v when t is equal to 5 seconds, draw a segment perpendicular to the x-axis at
x=5. The intersection of the given line and the segment drawn determine the value of v. The point of
intersection tells us that when t=5 seconds, the corresponding value of v is 50 ft/s.

 In some cases, one quantity may vary directly as the power of another.

Direct Variation as a Power

The value of y varies directly as the power of x if there exists a nonzero real number k is such that
y=kxn.

One example involves the area of a circle. That is . Hence, is the constant of variation, and the
area varies directly as the square of the radius r.

EXAMPLE 4:

The distance a body falls from rest is directly proportional to the square of the time it falls.
(a) If an object falls 20 meters in seconds, how far will it fall in 8 seconds?
(b) If an object was dropped from a height 405 meters, what time it took for the object to hit the ground?

SOLUTION:
A. Method 1: B. Method 1:

The distance d varies directly as the square of time When d=405 m

t.
405=5t2 Replace d with 405.
Then, d=kt2. Direct variation as a power. 81=t Divide both sides by 5.
20=k(2)2 Replace d with 20 and t with 2. ±9=t
20=k(4) Simply.
5=k Divide both sides by 4. We take only +9 because t=-9 is an erroneous
root. Thus, it will take 9 seconds to hit the ground
To constant of variation equation is equal to 5 from a height of 405 meters.

Thus, d=5t2. When

t=8,
d=5(8)2
d=320

The object will fall 320 meters in 8 seconds.

Method 2: Method 2:

Because d and t are in direct proportion, Because d and t are in direct proportion,

Replace d1 with 20, d2

Let d1=20, t1=2, and t2=8. with 405, and t1 with 2.

Replace d1, with 20 t1 Simplify.

with 2, and t2 with 8. Cross multiply. Then
Simplify. divide both sides by 20.

d Cross multiply. Then Simplify.

divide both sides by 4.
d2 = 320 Simplify.

The object will fall 320 meters in 8 seconds.
