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.
Insufficient information. What is x when y = 12?
According to the equation [ y = 2x ], '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.
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.
The answer depends on x and y. They are not defined for this question.
No.
X and Y are directly propotinal.If one is varing other is varing too.
Yes. Directly and 8 times as fast.
Example: 2/3 y = x this simple example means this: you are to find the fraction that multiplies to it and equal one. (of course, just flip it around) then move THAT behind x. It vary directly if it is the same as this - y=kx Tip: subtraction and addition automatically says "no , this does not vary directly
y = kx k = y/x = 21/-5 = - 21/5
If y varies directly as x and y is 18 when x is 24, then y is always three fourths of x. So if y is 15, then x is 20.
If y varies directly as x and y is 36 when x is 9, then y is always four times the value of x. So if y is 12, then x is 3.
If y varies directly as x and if x = 2 when y = 8 then k = 4.
y is directly proportional to x. When y = 15, x = 3 therefore y = 5x When x = 12, then y = 5 x 12 = 60.
If y varies directly as x then k = 2.
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.
