Question

The total grams of dietary fiber, f , in p apples can be represented by the equation f=4.4p . What is the constant of proportionality of the equation? Responses

Answer 1

The equation relating the total grams of dietary fiber (f) to the number of apples (p) is:

f = 4.4p

The constant of proportionality in this equation is the coefficient of p, which is 4.4. Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 4.4.
