Assignment Direct and Inverse Variation Class 8

This document contains a mathematics assignment on direct and inverse variation with 20 multiple choice and subjective questions. The questions test concepts of direct and inverse proportion, using formulas to solve problems involving work, time, speed, distance, and ratios. Examples include finding values when two variables vary directly or inversely, calculating distances or times given rates, and solving word problems about groups of workers, food rations, or trains.
