Proportional
A rate.
That is known as a unit rate.
A rate is a ratio of two quantities: miles per hour, calories per cookie, dollars per person, ... a unit rate just specifies the units (miles, hours) of the two quantities.
The constant of variation in a direct variation is the constant (unchanged) ratio of two variable quantities. The formula for direct variation is. y=kx (or y=kx ) where k is the constant of variation .
A ratio uses division to compare two quantities.
The relationship between two quantities with a constant rate of change or ratio is described as a linear relationship. In this case, the quantities can be expressed in the form of an equation, typically (y = mx + b), where (m) represents the constant rate of change (slope) and (b) is the y-intercept. If the ratio of the two quantities is constant, they are also said to be directly proportional, meaning that as one quantity increases or decreases, the other does so in a consistent manner.
The answer is proportional.
Rate
A relationship between two quantities where the rate of change or the ratio of one quantity to the other is constant is known as a direct proportion. In this scenario, as one quantity increases or decreases, the other quantity changes at a consistent rate, maintaining a fixed ratio. For example, if you have a constant speed while traveling, the distance covered is directly proportional to the time spent traveling. This relationship can be expressed mathematically as ( y = kx ), where ( k ) is the constant of proportionality.
The diameter and circumference of a circle.
A rate.
Two quantities are said to be proportional if they vary in such a way that one of the quantities is a constant multiple of the other, or equivalently if they have a constant ratio.
It is a direct proportion.
