Answer:


Constant\ of\ proportionality=(3)/(2)

Explanation:

By definition, Direct proportion equations have the following form:


y=kx

Where "k" is the Constant of proportionality.

The graph of a Direct proportional relationship is a straight line that passes through the origin.

In this case you need to pick any point on the line given in the picture. You can choose the following point:


(4,6)

So, you can identify that:


x=4\\y=6

Knowing that, you must substitute these values into the equation
y=kx:


6=k(4)

And finally, you need to solve for "k" in order to find its value. You get that this is:


(6)/(4)=k\\\\k=(3)/(2)
