DIRECT VARIATION; SOLVING EQUATIONS AND PROPORTIONS

In this unit, you will investigate direct variation. Many events in the real world have a direct-variation relationship. For example, in many jobs an employee’s wages vary directly as the number of hours worked. You will also look at the properties of equality that are used to solve equations and proportions.
