Question

Please HELP ME. this make no sense

Answer 1

the constant of proportionality is 8

Explanation:

The formula is y = kx. Let's substitute some values to find the constant of proportionality. When x = 3, y = 24. So, 24 = k(3). Now, isolate k. k = 24/3 = 8.

Answer 2

k = 8

y = 8x

Explanation:

When two variables are directly proportional to each other, their relationship is given as y =kx, where k is known as constant of proportionality,

y = kx

Substitute (3 ,24) in the above equation and find the value of k.

24 = k*3

24 ÷ 3 = k

8 = k

y = 8x
