B. INTRODUCTION
Variation is an important tool to accurately show the relationship between two variables. Most
often than not, we do activities showing the relationship of two variables without realizing that we are
already applying variations. For example, in economics, the relationship between demands and supplies
and in science, the connection of speed, distance, and time.
In this learning packet, we will be discussing the different types of variations, their graphs (if
applicable), and the different applications of variations in real-life.
C. DISCUSSION
UPGRADED MELC: Solve real life problems given in the form of a table of values, mathematical
equation and graph involving variations by translating it into a variation statement between two
quantities.

There is a direct variation whenever a situation produces pairs of numbers
in which their ratio is constant.
KEYWORDS:

is a straight line.

two or more quantities and inversely with other quantities. In other words, this is a
combination of direct (or joint) and inverse variations.
The following formulas are used:
𝑘𝑤𝑥 𝑦𝑧

EXAMPLE 2: The current I varies directly as the electromotive force E and inversely as the resistance
R. If in a system a current of 20 amperes flows through the resistance of 20 ohms with an
electromotive force of 100 volts, find the current that 150 volts will send through the system when
the resistance is 25 ohms.

SUMMARY
After completion of this module, the students should have realized that the relationships between
two or more variables can be represented through the different kinds of variations.
Direct variation shows that an increase in one variable corresponds to an increase in the other at
the same rate. Inverse variation describes a relations wherein if one variable increases, the other variable
decreases proportionally.
Joint variation is a relationship between 3 variables. If one variable increases (or decreases), then
the product of the other two variables increases (or decreases) as well.
Lastly, combined variation is a variation in which one quantity varies directly or jointly with two or
more quantities and inversely with other quantities.
