Z = K Y / X
'K' can be any constant number.
when x increases y increases.. y=kx
Disproportional.If instead you're looking for the antonym of directly proportional, that would be inversely proportional.
The greek letter "alpha" (α) for both. If x is directly proportional to y, you could say x α y. For inversely proportional, you would say something like x α 1/y, or x α y^-1, as in, directly proportional to the inverse.
That would probably be something like a "physical equation".That would probably be something like a "physical equation".That would probably be something like a "physical equation".That would probably be something like a "physical equation".
A situation equation follows the order of the story problem.For instance:Johnny has 8 apples, he eats some, and has 3 left.The situation equation would be: 8 - a = 3A solution equation is the equation that would help you find the solution. Your brain doesn't automatically know what "a" is, it has to rearrange the order of the equation and then solve.The solution equation would be: 8 - 3 = a, then you would solve it.
when x increases y increases.. y=kx
If P varies directly with the square of Q then the equation would be in the form of P = kQ2, where k is the constant of variation so the new equation would be: P = 6Q2, so when Q = 12 we have P=6*122, or P = 864
Your mass would not change... it's a constant. However, your weight would increase, because the force of gravity (directly related to the mass of the planet) would increase substantially. (Gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the two objects in the field, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them). You can thank Newton for that equation.

Generally speaking when the mass of a substance increases, so does its volume. And vice versa. Therefore mass and volume are directly proportional. If they were inversely proportional one cup of water would weigh more than 2 cups of water.
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 .
Resistance varies directly as length Resistance varies inversely as cross-sectional area Hence R varies as L and R varies as 1/A Thus R = r(L/A) where r is the coefficient of resistance of the wire. If the wire is of uniform cross section, then A = V/L where V is the volume of the wire. Hence now we have R = r(L/(V/L)) or R = r(L-squared/V) or L-squared = (RxV)/r and so the answer would be L = square-root of (RxV)/r
Did you mean a gas' solubility in water? Then temperature would be inversely proportional.
The energy in one photon of any electromagnetic radiation is directly proportionalto its frequency, so that would be inversely proportional to its wavelength.Note: There is no energy in the protons of light, since light has no protons.

Ideally you would want one of the phrases "directly proportional", "varies according to" or similar.
