Lab objectives and outcomes

Students will be able to explain how the constant of proportionality (k) affects the graph of a direct variation equation.
Students will be able to demonstrate direct variation by manipulating the constant in the equation and observing the real-time changes on the graph.
Students will be able to predict the impact of changing the sign and magnitude of the constant on the slope and direction of the direct variation line.
