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 .

∙ 15y agoIf x varies directly as y, then
x= ky, where k is any constant
If x varies inversely as y, then
x = k/y, where k is any constant

Difference between the graphs of linear equations and a direct variation?
Linear has a slope direct does not but both go through the orgin
The differences between linear relation and inverse relation?
Can you tell me the definitions for these different kinds of relationships in statistics. direct, direct to the nth power, joint, inverse ane regress?
What does the k represent in the direct variation ykx?
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 .
What is a relationship between two quantities in which the ratio of one quantity to the other is constant?
It is called direct variation.
What makes a decreasing linear relationship a direct variation?
if the line runs through the origin it is a direct variation no matter if it is increasing or decreasing
What is the difference between direct variation and direct proportion?
im not say that defferent.my question is inverse variation as a proportion.pls answerbecause i dont know the answer
What is the difference direct variation and inverse variation?
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 .
How do you do a direct variation with an inverse variation problem?
If a variable X is in inverse variation with a variable Y, then it is in direct variation with the variable (1/Y).
What is the difference between a direct and inverse relationship?
direct means it stays the same while inverse means it will change.
Is y equals 24 divided by x a direct variation?
No, this is an inverse variation.
Does the graph of an inverse variation pass through the origin?
Inverse variation does not pass through the origin, however direct variation always passes through the origin.
Does the function y equals 8x represent a direct or inverse variation?
Direct
How do you do 7th grade direct and inverse variation?
xy=k
How do you find if a table is direct variation or inverse variation?
Suppose the two variables are denoted by X and Y. If Y is a constant multiple of X, that is Y = c*X, then the variation is direct. If the value of X*Y is a constant, that is Y = c/X, then the variation in inverse.
How do you tell an inverse variation from a direct variation?
direct varation is when both x and y rise and decrease by the same number. inverse is when x or y decreases, the other one increases by the same number
The equation y 8x is an example of inverse variation is this true?
No. This is not true. It is false. The equation is an example of direct variation.
