Proportionality
In mathematics, two variables are proportional if a change in one is always accompanied by a change in the other, and if the changes are always related by use of a constant. The constant is called the coefficient of proportionality or proportionality constant. When the constant is negative, the variables are described as negatively proportional. ⁕If one variable is always the product of the other and a constant, the two are said to be directly proportional. x and y are directly proportional if the ratio is constant. ⁕If the product of the two variables is always equal to a constant, the two are said to be inversely proportional. x and y are inversely proportional if the product is constant. If a linear function transforms 0, a and b into 0, c and d, and if the product a b c d is not zero, we say a and b are proportional to c and d. An equality of two ratios such as where no term is zero, is called a proportion.
