The Relationships between inverse and linear variations

Linear and inverse variations are very different, but they have some similarities. They are similar because they both have an equation that when put in a graph they form a line. This is the similarities but, the line of the inverse variations is completely different to the one of the linear variation. Also the equation is very different in both because they depend of different variables.


The lines of inverse and linear variations have nearly no similarity. The line of an inverse variation is a decreasing curve that will never cross any axes. In the other hand linear variations have a line that is straight, constant and that will always cross a least one axis. They both show completely different lines, one that's straight and one that's curvy, one that crosses the axis, one that will never cross the axis, etc.

Linear and inverse variations have completely different equations. The equation of a linear variation has a constant slope, a changing independent variable, a independent variable and a starting point. In the equation of inverse variations there is a constant, a dependent variable and a independent variable. Both equations have a independent and a dependent variable but one has a slope, and one has no slope but it still forms a line so they are more different than alike.
