Question

Having trouble with this one help appreciated

Answer 1

The constant of proportionality is 3.50.

Explanation:

We know that when y directly varies with x, such that

`y=kx`

The number 'k' is called the constant of proportionality.

Given the equation

`y=3.50x`

as

`y=kx`

so

`k=3.50` ∵
`y=kx`

Here the value of k = 3.50, which is the constant of proportionality.

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 3.50.
