y=5x

Here y, x are variables and 5 is the constant

Let us assume values for x and observe how the values of x and y vary with respect to each other:

x = 1 , y = 5 1 = 5
x = 5 , y = 5 5 = 1
x = 15 , y = 5 15 = 1 3

It can be observed that as x increases in value , y decreases and hence the variation inverse.

If one variable increases the other decreases.
If one decreases the other increases.
