Respuesta :

Direct relationship.

Answer: The two variables follow direct relationship.

[tex]\text{Variable 1}\propto \frac{1}{\text{Variable 2}}[/tex]

One increases, other one decreases and vice versa.

  • A direct relationship is defined as the relationship in which if one variable increases, the other variable will also increase and vice-versa.

[tex]\text{Variable 1}\propto {\text{Variable 2}[/tex]

One increases, the other one also increases and vice-versa.

Hence, the correct answer to the question is that the two variables follow direct relationship.
