Direct and Inverse Variation - Annenberg Learner
www.learner.org › direct-and-inverse-variationDirect variation is a critical topic in Algebra 1. A direct variation represents a specific case of linear function, and it can be used to model a number of real-world situations. Part 2: Inverse Variation. Inverse variations are excellent vehicles for investigating nonlinear functions. A number of real-world phenomena are described by inverse variations, and they are typically the first functions that students encounter that do not cross either axis on a graph.
