Answer: Yes, it is A!

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a because, you can have 30 baseball cards, and six packages, so imagine this has six bags full of a certain amount of candy, and there is 30 pieces of candy, and do you want to separate them into an even amount, so this would be 30÷6= ? The? Would be 5 as in to say The constant of proportionality would also be 5.

Answer:

Option A is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 packages that store 30 baseball cards.

Number of cards in 1 package = 30/6 = 5

Let us consider a as number of packages and b as number of cards.

We have equation for number of cards,

b = 5 a

The constant of proportionality = 5

Option A is the correct answer.
