Directly proportional. As mass increases, inertia increases and vice versa

Answer;
Directly proportional
Step-by-step explanation
Inertia is
directly proportional
to mass of an object. Therefore, when the force of inertia increases the mass also increases, and when it decreases the mass also decreases.
According to Newton's first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia;
a body remains at a state of rest or constant motion and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force.
Mass of a body is totally dependent on inertia of an object, such that the more inertia an object or a body has, then the more mass it has.
which means inertia and mass are directly proportional. Therefore, an object with high mass has an increased tendency to resist change in its state of motion.
