Variation is a term that is used to describe

Answer 1

VARIATION
Variation problems involve fairly simple relationships or formulas, involving one variable being equal to one term. Here follows the most common kinds of variation.
The constant of variation in a direct variation is the constant (unchanged) ratio of two variable quantities. In the following equation y varies directly with x, and k is called the constant of variation

Tyoes of variation
------------------
Constant of Variation - The ratio between two variables in a direct variation or the product of two variables in an inverse variation. In the direct variation equations = k and y = kx , and the inverse variation equations xy = k and y = , k is the constant of variation.

Direct Variation - A statement of the form = k or y = kx , where k is a constant of variation.

Inverse Variation - A statement of the form xy = k or y = , where k is a constant of variation.
