Question

In a relationship with two variables, when one variable becomes larger by a given factor and the other becomes smaller by the same factor, the variables are said to be related.

Answer 1

... the variables are said to be inversely related.

Answer 2

The correct answer is inversely related

Step-by-step explanation:

This means that if one variable increases, then the other goes down. Mathematically speaking, this is writing as: y=k/x. For example, think when you travel somewhere. The variables will be speed and time, as you increase the speed of your vehicle the time reduces. Or another one, when a price, in normal conditions, increases then the demand of its quantity goes down.
