For direct and inverse variation, find the equation. a. b. c y y y Neither the product y nor the ratio y/ are constant in the data in the table. Therefore there is neither direct variation nor indirect variation in this table. As increases, y decreases. Because y = 60 for each data point, the equation y = 60/ models the data. This represents an inverse variation. The equation y = 6 models the data. The data represents direct variation.

If a beam 5 inches wide and inches thick supports 80 pounds, how much can a similar beam 4 inches wide and 3 inches thick support? Solution The strength of the beam is 80 k 5 modeled by S = kwt. 80 k 54 k 14

71 (cont) Try Q 83 pg. 488 Thus S = 14wt models the strength of this type of beam. When w = 4 and t = 3, the beam can support S = = 504 pounds
