(Second Quarter)
I. OBJECTIVES
At the end of the session, the students are expected to:
1. illustrate situations that involve inverse variation;
2. translate the inverse variation phrase into its mathematical equation and use this in solving problems involving
inverse variation; and
3. appreciate the importance of inverse variation in our daily lives.
III. PROCEDURE
A. Preparation
Prayer
Greetings
B. Motivation
Group the class into three groups. Each group will receive a picture and they will guess what the picture
is all about. They will be given 2 minutes to answer.
C. Presentation
Based on the activity that we had, what do you think is the connection of it in our topic today?
Relate the motivational activity conducted to the topic to be discussed.
Introduce the topic and present the following objectives.
D. Discussion
From the activity that we had, how do we define inverse variation?
How do you translate the mathematical phrases or statements into an equation?
Consider, “y varies inversely as x,” how can you express it into mathematical equation?
How do you use them in solving problems?
Find the equation and solve for k: y varies inversely as x and y = 6 when x = 18.
If y varies inversely as x and y = 10 when x = 2, find y when x = 10.
E. Application
The students will be group into three. The same members that they had in the motivational activity. Each
group will be given an envelope and inside the envelope are the tasks that they will work on.
Each group will make a real-life situation where the concept of inverse variation is being applied. Then,
they will have to act it out. They will be given 5 minutes to finish the task and show off their
presentation.
F. Generalization
What is inverse variation? Give an example.
How do you solve for the constant of variation?
How do you find the equation of the variation? And what is the use of that equation?
IV. EVALUATION
Multiple Choices. Answer the following. Write only the letter of your answer.
V. ASSIGNMENT
Solve each problem.
1. Joseph is figuring out a way to reach Baguio at the shortest possible time. Using his car, he can reach Baguio
in 6 hours at an average speed of 70 km per hour. How fast should he drive in order to reach Baguio in 5 hours?
2. The number of days needed in repairing a house varies inversely as the number of men working. It takes 15
days for men to repair the house. How many men are needed to complete the job in 6 days?
