The constant.
Direct variation is the ratio of two variable is constant. Inverse variation is when the product of two variable is constant. For example, direct variation is y = kx and indirect variation would be y = k/x .
A direct variation is when the value of K in multiple proportions is all divisible by the same number for example: XY=(1)(10) K=10 XY=(2)(20) K=40 XY=(3)(30) K=90 XY=(4)(40) K=160 In this situation the constant (K) of each proportion is divisible by 10 making the multiple equations a direct variation.
It is 2/3.
Direct variation means that a linear function can be written as y = kx. The y-intercept must be (0, 0). The constant, k, is the slope.
direct variation, and in the equation y=kx the k ca NOT equal 0.
The constant.
k is the operator; y is the initiend.
The slope of the graph of a direct variation is always positive.
k is the constant of variation and is the gradient (slope) of the relevant graph.

Both are variations of certain kinds of equations. X=kY is a direct variation since X varies directly as Y and k is the constant of variation. X=k/Y is an inverse variation where X varies inversly as Y and k is the constant of variation. Both of these variations are also functions.
