Question

What is the Constant of proportionality show in the table below

Answer 1

the expression for a proportional relationship is,

`y=kx`

here, k = proportionality constant

we will put the value of x and y corresponding to each other from the table

for (3,18)

`\begin{gathered} 18=k*3 \\ k=(18)/(3) \\ k=6 \end{gathered}`

for (6,36)

`\begin{gathered} 36=k*6 \\ k=(36)/(6) \\ k=6 \end{gathered}`

thus the given table is the table of a proportional function

and the constant of proportionality is 6
