Constant Calculation

Worksheet Description

This worksheet asks students to calculate the constant of variation k for both direct and inverse variation problems. Given values for two variables in either a direct or inverse relationship, students must solve for the constant that links the variables. The worksheet includes a mix of direct and inverse variation scenarios to provide comprehensive practice.

This worksheet strengthens students’ understanding of how constants of variation define relationships between variables in both direct and inverse variations. By calculating k, students enhance their algebraic reasoning and improve their ability to work with proportional relationships. This practice is essential for mastering topics like functions and equations, where constants play a key role. It also builds students’ confidence in manipulating equations and understanding how different types of variation work.
