The Garden Hose

When the resistance increases, and the current is constant, the pressure increases:

The same thing is true of electrical circuits:

If R increases, V has to increase to keep their quotient (I) constant.

would happen to the pressure if you decrease the flow (by turning down the faucet) while keeping the nozzle on the hose (constant resistance)?
