A table shows a proportional relationship where k is the constant of

proportionality. The rows are then switched. How does the new constant of
proportionality relate to the original one? *

They relate because the original constant of proportionality is a unite rate. Then the flipped constant of proportionality would not be a unit rate. It's basically the reciprocal of the original constant of proportionality or K.
