What is the difference between directly propotional and inversely proportional?
In directly proportional the two variable vary in the same "direction". So, if one increases, the other increases.In inversely proportional, the two variable vary in opposite "directions". So, if one increases, the other decreases.
If y is directly proportional to x and y equals 12. What is the value of x when y equals 5?
Insufficient information. What is x when y = 12?
Is the equation y equals 2x directly proportional?
According to the equation [ y = 2x ], 'y' is directly proportional to 'x' .
Y is directly proportional to x?
If a variable (such as y) is directly proportional to another variable (such as x), they both increase and decrease simultaneously. An equation for two directly proportional variables is:y = axIt's sort of like a linear equation, but it always goes through the origin.An example is y = 6x. Notice that it forms a straight line and crosses the origin, and that y and x increase in the same direction.
What is inversely and directly proportional?
Two variables, X and Y are said to be in inversely proportional is X*Y - k where k is some non-zero constant. X and Y are said to be directly proportional if X = c*Y where c is some constant.
