Answer:

k=2/3

Explanation:

As said, this table shows direct variation. The equation is y=kx.

we can solve the equation to isolate the variable to see what the equation is to find k.

divide by x on both sides

y/x=k

that means that k is y/x

so we can divide 2/3 for example. Or 4/6 and see it simplifies to 2/3. You can do this for the other numbers to see that they are all equal to 2/3

That means that k is 2/3

Hope this helps!
