Direct Variation
The variable y varies directly as x if there is a nonzero constant, k, such that y = kx.
The equation y = kx is called a direct variation equation and the number k is called the constant of variation.

Steps:
1. Plug in the given information to find k.
2. Once you have found k, rewrite the direct variation equation including this value.
3. Use the found k value to evaluate the equation at another value (x or y).

Examples
Ohm’s law states that the voltage, V, measured in volts varies directly as the electric current, I, according to the equation V= IR. The constant of variation is the electrical resistance of the circuit, R. Ex: An iron is plugged into a 110-volt electrical outlet, creating a current of 5.5 amperes in the iron. Find the electrical resistance to the iron.
