Linear Functions

Definition

Direct variation describes a linear relationship between two variables where one variable is a constant multiple of the other, expressed as y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.

Description

Direct variation is a fundamental concept in linear functions, illustrating how one variable changes proportionally with another. The constant of variation, 𝑘 k, represents the rate of change.

In real-world scenarios, direct variation can model relationships such as speed and distance, where distance traveled varies directly with time at a constant speed. Understanding this concept is crucial in fields like physics and engineering.

A constant function is a linear function of the form f(x) = b, where b is a constant. The graph of a constant function is a horizontal line.

Description

Constant functions are a fundamental concept in linear functions. They represent scenarios where the output value remains unchanged, regardless of the input value. This is depicted graphically as a horizontal line, indicating that the function's rate of change is zero.

In real-world applications, constant functions can model situations where a quantity remains steady over time. For example, a flat fee service charge that does not vary with usage can be represented as a constant function.

A decreasing linear function is a linear function where the slope is negative, indicating that as the input value increases, the output value decreases.

Description

Decreasing linear functions are important in understanding how variables inversely relate to each other. The negative slope signifies a reduction in the dependent variable as the independent variable increases.

Real-world examples include depreciation of assets over time or the decrease in temperature as altitude increases. These functions help model scenarios where an increase in one quantity results in a decrease in another.

Equations of parallel lines are linear equations that have the same slope but different y-intercepts, indicating that the lines never intersect.

Description

Understanding equations of parallel lines is crucial in geometry and algebra. Parallel lines have identical slopes, which means they run in the same direction and never meet.

In real-world applications, parallel lines can model scenarios such as railway tracks or lanes on a highway, where maintaining a consistent distance is essential.
