Direct variation can be applied to many problems and here is a worksheet that has learners practicing them all. The skills include graphing, finding proportional relationships, and solving word problems to show how different factors...

Students identify graphs for direct variation. In this algebra worksheet, students analyze graphs to determine their direct variation. They also determine whether the graphs are functions or not.

Students solve problems with direct variation. In this algebra instructional activity, students analyze graphs to figure out the direct variation of a line. They observe the slopes based the steepness of the lines.

Students create a design of a circle. In this geometry activity, students identify the measure of the diameter and radius of a circle. They graph and analyze their collected data and write equations based on direct variation.
