    This document describes combined variation, where a variable depends on two or more other variables, varying directly with some and inversely with others when the rest are held constant. It provides examples of writing equations for relationships where a variable varies directly with one variable and inversely with another variable or its square. It also gives examples of solving variation problems and applications involving electrical resistance of wires and gas volume that vary directly and inversely with different variables like length, diameter, temperature, and pressure.

    COMBINED

    VARIATION
    Combined Variation
     Describes a situation where a variable depends on
    two (or more) other variables, and varies directly 
    with some of them and varies inversely with
    others (when the rest of the variables are held
    constant).
    Write an equation for the given
    relationship:
     
    1.  varies directly with inversely with the square of .

    2.  varies directly with  and inversely with .


      𝑧
    Solve the variation
    It  is given that varies directly with square and inversely

    with . Also, when , , . Find the value of z when and .


    Application:
    1.   The electrical resistance of a wire varies directly as its length and

    inversely as the square of its diameter . If the resistance of 640 feet of


    copper wire ​ inch in diameter is 16 ohms, find the resistance of 320 feet
    of the same type of copper wire  ​ inch in diameter.
    2. The volume of gas varies directly as the temperature and inversely as the
    pressure. If the volume is 230 cubic centimeters when the temperature
    is 300ºK and the pressure is 20 pounds per square centimeter, what is the volume
    when the temperature is 270ºK and the pressure is 30pounds per square
    centimeter?
