How do you name the Constant of Variation in the equation, #y=x#?

Answer 1

Constant of variation: #1#

If #y=c*x# for some constant #c# then there is a direct variation between #x# and #y# with a constant of variation#=c#

Since #y=xcolor(white)("XX")hArrcolor(white)("XX")y=1*x# #x# and #y# are in direct variation with a constant of variation #=1#

In the equation y = kx, where k is the constant of variation, it is typically referred to as the "constant of proportionality" or the "proportionality constant."
