A direct relationship graph is a graph where one variable either increases or decreases along with the other. The general equation for a direct relationship graph is y = mx + b, where y denotes the...
The horizontal axis measures time; the vertical, current or voltage. Direct current (DC) is the unidirectional flow of electric charge.

Direct current may flow in a conductor such as a wire, but can also flow through semiconductors, insulators, or even through a vacuum as in electron or ion beams.
