Does the math term ratio mean multiply?
No, the math term ratio doesn't mean multiply.
What term describes a relationship in which one quantity is a multiple of the other quantity?
Direct variation
Is the problem y equals 3x a direct variation if so what is the constant of variation?
y=3x is a direct variation in that y varies directly with x by a factor of 3. Any linear equation (a polynomial of degree 1, which is a polynomial equation with a highest exponent of 1), is a direct variation of y to x by some constant, and this constant is simply the coefficient of the "x" term. Other examples: y=(1/2)x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is 1/2 y=-9x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is -9
