Direct variation.
[Directly] proportional quantities.
Proportional
The diameter and circumference of a circle.
Unbalanced relation,
Direct variation.
The relationship is a linear one. For example when driving at a constant speed, the relationship between distance driven and the time driven is linear with a constant ratio (of the constant speed).
The constant of proportionality can be calculated by dividing the output variable by the input variable in a proportional relationship. It represents the ratio between the input and output quantities in the relationship. This constant remains the same throughout the relationship.
Two variables whose ratio is constant have a linear relationship. The first variable is the second multiplied by the constant.
It is a direct [linear] proportionality.
It is a direct proportion.
A linear relationship
It is called direct variation.
It is called direct variation.
[Directly] proportional 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 .
it is a proportional relationship because a proportional relationship is known as a relationship between two quantities in which the ratio of one quantity to the other quantity is constant.
