f5 Variation Math

This document discusses direct variation, inverse variation, and joint variation in mathematics. 1) If y varies directly as x, then y = kx, where k is the constant of variation. If y varies directly as x^2, then y = kx^2. 2) If y varies inversely as x, then y = k/x. Examples are given of finding values of variables when their relationships are defined. 3) If p varies directly as q and inversely as r, then p = kq/r. An example problem finds the value of p when given values of m, r, and the relationship between p, m, and r.
