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,

Given function is a direct variation
