Answer:


(p)/(u) =k

Explanation:

  • A direct proportion means the ratio of p:u is a constant number
  • This constant number is denoted by k
  • an example of this is, say for every 1 chicken you buy there are 2 legs which is ratio 1:2 which is
    (1)/(2)
  • so if you add more chickens, you add more legs, 2 chickens means 4 legs, 8 chickens means 16 legs, which is
    (1)/(2)= (2)/(4) =(8)/(16) =0.5 so the constant number is 0.5, so this a direct proportion
  • The two values grow at the same rate
