The value of positive proportional function y = (k-1) x decreases with the increase of independent variable x. what is the value range of K and why

The value of positive proportional function y = (k-1) x decreases with the increase of independent variable x. what is the value range of K and why

Because the value of function y decreases with the increase of the value of independent variable x
So the positive proportional function y = (k-1) x is a decreasing function
So k-1
