Interpretation: A relationship between the two variables is to be explained.
Concept introduction: When the ratio of the two variables is constant, then the two variables are proportional.
Answer to Problem 82A
The ratio of the two variables is constant, indicating that they are proportional. Their ratio gives the relative size of one variable compared to another variable.
Explanation of Solution
The ratio of the two variables is constant then the two variables are proportional to one another. It indicates that the value of one variable, which is inversely proportional to the other variable, decreases when the other variable increases, but the product of the two variables remains the same. Therefore, the ratio of the variables is the relative size of one variable compared to the size of another.
The ratio of the two variables is constant, indicating that they are proportional. Their ratio gives the relative size of one variable compared to another variable.
