Tom & Sue work for the city parks department where they mow the lawn in the city park. Tom, working by himself, can mow the lawn in 5 hours. Sue, working by herself, can mow the lawn in 4 hours. How long will it take to mow the lawn if they work together?
Estimates? 9 hours? 4.5 hours? 2.25 hours? Other guesses?

Proportions – Equality of Proportions – Equality of RatiosRatios
Ratio: A quotient of related quantities.
Proportion: Two equivalent rations that relate the same quantities.
One of the quantities will be unknown.
Does it matter which quantity is on top?

Direct Variation Two quantities whose ratio is a
constant.

◦e.g. Joint Variation Three quantities where the ratio of
one of the quantities to the product of the other two quantities is a constant.

Direct VariationDirect Variation
Two quantities whose ratio is a constant.
“ y varies directly as x ” aka: “y is [directly] proportional to x”
k is called the “constant of proportionality”
yk
x y kx
In an application, data is given to determine k and then values of x are used to determine values of y.

Direct VariationDirect Variation
Example ...The weight hanging from a spring is
directly proportional to the distance the spring is stretched (Hooke’s Law). If a 6 pound weight stretches a particular spring 5 inches, and a fish hanging from the same spring stretches the spring 9 inches, how much does the fish weigh?

Two quantities whose product is a constant.
“ y varies inversely as x ” aka: “y is inversely proportional to x”

Example ...The time it takes a to get sunburned
varies inversely with the UV rating on that day? If a UV rating of 4 causes person with fair skin to burn in 20 minutes, how long will it take for them to burn on a day with a UV rating of 7?k
