Answer 1

Answer: A, C

Divide any of the y values by x values and you will always get 3 is the most simple way I can put it for you.

Answer 2

(A) The constant of proportionality can be found by dividing a y-value by its

corresponding x-value.

(C) The constant of proportionality is 3.

Explanation:

constant of proportionality

y=kx

y/x =k

y=9

x=3

k = 9/3 =3

(A) The constant of proportionality can be found by dividing a y-value by its

corresponding x-value.

y/x =k

TRUE

(B) The constant of proportionality can be found by dividing an x-value by its

corresponding y-value. FALSE

(C) The constant of proportionality is 3. TRUE

(D) The constant of proportionality is 5.FALSE
