The formula y=kxn y = k x n is used for direct variation. The value k is a nonzero constant greater than zero and is called the constant of variation.

What are the 4 types of variation?
Examples of types of variation include direct, inverse, joint, and combined variation.
What is a variation example?
Variation is how much something differs from another. An example of variation is light blue to dark blue.
What is the formula for constant of variation?
The constant of variation means the relationship between variables does not change. When we want to identify the constant of variation for an equation, it is helpful to refer to one of the following formulas: xy = k (inverse variation) or y/x = k (direct variation), where k is the constant of variation.
