Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 1.5 and the value of q is 9.

Explanation:

Assume Hours as 'x' and Miles walked = 'y'

Constant of proportionality means the same value of
$ (y)/(x) $ is maintained throughout.

So, note that
$ (3)/(2) = (6)/(4) = (12)/(8) $ = 1.5

This means that
$ (q)/(6) $ should also equal 1.5.


$ \implies (q)/(6) = 1.5 $


$ \implies q = 1.5 * 6 $ = 9.

Therefore, the value of 'q' is 9.
