Given function is a direct variation
Step-by-step explanation:
The direct proportion is defined as the increase in one quantity causes increase in other quantity.
If y is directly proportional to x, then it is given as:
y = kx
where k is the constant of proportionality
Given
y = 3x
Comparing the general form and given equation we see that both are same where k =3
So,
