When calculating<br />

the slope, be sure<br />

to subtract the<br />

x‑coordinates and<br />

the y‑coordinates<br />

in the correct order.<br />

A vertical line has<br />

“undefined slope”<br />

because for any<br />

two points, the<br />

slope formula’s<br />

denominator<br />

becomes 0, and<br />

division by 0 is<br />

undefined.<br />

Your <strong>Notes</strong><br />

The value of k is<br />

called the spring<br />

constant. This<br />

constant is unique<br />

for each spring.<br />

Example 2 Write a Direct Variation Equation<br />

physics According to Hooke’s law, the amount that a<br />

spring is stretched varies directly <strong>with</strong> the force that is<br />

applied to the spring. If 64 pounds of force F stretches<br />

a spring a distance d of 8 inches, write an equation<br />

so that F varies directly <strong>with</strong> d. How many pounds of<br />

force are needed to stretch the spring to a distance<br />

of 14 inches?<br />

Solution<br />

Find the constant of variation.<br />

F 5 kd Write a direct variation equation.<br />

64 5 k( 8 ) Substitute 64 for F and 8 for d.<br />

8 5 k Simplify.<br />

An equation is F 5 8d . To find how many pounds<br />

of force is needed to stretch the spring 14 inches,<br />

substitute 14 for d.<br />

F 5 8 ( 14 ) 5 112<br />

A force of 112 pounds will stretch the spring 14 inches.<br />

Checkpoint Complete the following exercise.<br />

2. Suppose that a force of 92 pounds is applied to<br />

the spring discussed in Example 2. How far will<br />

the spring be stretched?<br />

11.5 inches<br />

Example 3 Identify Direct Variation<br />

The table gives sample cell phone bills, showing the<br />

total monthly cost and the number of minutes used<br />

per month. Tell whether total cost and the number of<br />

minutes show direct variation. If so, write an equation<br />

relating c and m.<br />

Total cost, c (dollars) 35 45 80 15 28<br />

The ratio of c to m in each pair is nearly the same , so<br />

the data show direct variation . Substituting 0.35<br />

for k in c 5 km gives the direct variation equation<br />

c 5 0.35 m, which relates the total cost to number of<br />

minutes used.<br />
