Answer:

Option C is correct

y = (1)/(5)x

Explanation:

The Proportional relationship says that:

$y \propto x$ then

the equation is of the form :

y = kx .....[1] where k is the constant of Proportionality

As per the statement:

Constant of proportionality (k) =
(1)/(5)

Substitute in [1] we get;

y = (1)/(5)x

Therefore, an equation represents a proportional relationship that has a constant of proportionality equal to 1/5 is
