What is the formula for finding the constant of proportionality?

Back

The constant of proportionality can be found using the formula k = y/x, where y and x are the quantities being compared.

What does it mean if a graph is non-proportional?

Back

A non-proportional graph does not maintain a constant ratio between the two quantities and does not pass through the origin.

What is the difference between direct and inverse proportionality?

Back

Direct proportionality means that as one quantity increases, the other also increases, while inverse proportionality means that as one quantity increases, the other decreases.
