 Lesson 1: VARIATIONS
Lesson Objectives:
• define terms related to variations;
• determine whether the given variation is direct,
inverse, joint or combined given the table of
values, mathematical equation, and/or graph;
and
• appreciate the importance of variation in real-life
situations.

VARIATION
•In a mathematical equation where a relationship
is established, one is a value which doesn’t
change with the changes of other parameters in
the equation. Whereas, the other one is the
quantity which changes for different situations.

FOUR TYPES OF VARIATION

•Direct Variation
•Inverse Variation
•Joint Variation
•Combined Variation
DIRECT VARIATION
•In direct variation, as one variable is multiplied by a constant
and increases, the other variable also increases.
•Let x and y denote two quantities. Y varies directly with x or y
is directly proportional to x, if there is a nonzero number k
where k is the constant of variation, then

INVERSE VARIATION
•Inverse variation is a relationship between variables so that
as one variable decreases, the other variable increases.
•Let x and y denote two quantities. Y varies inversely as x or y is inversely
proportional to x, if there is a nonzero number k where k is the constant of
variation, then

𝒌
 

𝒚= 𝒐𝒓 𝒌 = 𝒚𝒙

EXAMPLE #2

will it take to reach its destination if it travels a speed of 20
kph?

questions or
clarifications?
JOINT VARIATION
• Jointvariation is a relationship between three variables, where
one variable varies directly as the product of two or more
variables.

• Let x, y and z denote three quantities. Y varies jointly as x and z,if

there is some positive constant k such that:

𝒚= 𝒌𝒙𝒛
 
COMBINED VARIATION
• Combined variation is the most complex relationship among three
variables, where one variable varies directly as one variable and inversely
as another. This is the kind of variation that involves both the direct and
inverse y = 𝒌 𝒙 y=kxz k= 3 4 k= 3 variations.

• Let x, y and z denote three quantities. Y varies directly as x and inversely

as z if there is some positive constant k such that:
