Direct and Inverse Variation

100

Does the equation x = 5y model direct variation, inverse variation, or neither?

Direct!

200

Find y when x =1.5, if y varies directly as x and y =- 16 when x=6.

y = -4

300

If y varies inversely with x and y = 0.3 when x = 3.5, then find the value of y when x = 3.

y = .35

400

 If y varies inversely as x and x=7 when y =21, find y when x =42.

y = 3.5 

500

Y varies directly as the cube of x. If y = 1,000 when x=2, find y when x =3. 

y = 3,375

Joint Variation

100

If y varies jointly as x and z, and y = 12 when x = 9 and z = 3, find z when y = 6 and x = 15.

z = 9/10

200

If y varies jointly as x and z, and y = 33 when x = 9 and z = 12, find y when x = 16 and z = 22.

y = 968/9

300

Suppose y varies jointly with x and z. If y = 20 when x =2 and z = 5, find y when x =14 and z=8.

y = 224

400

 If p varies jointly as q and r squared, and p = 225 when q = 4 and r = 3, find p when q = 6 and r = 8.

p = 2400

500

If a varies jointly as b cubed and c, and a = 36 when b = 4 and c = 6, find a when b = 2 and c = 14.

a = 21/2
