Question

Drag and drop the constant of proportionality into the box to match the table. If the table is not proportional, drag and drop "not proportional" into the box.

x 2 4 6 8

y 3 7 11 15


Answer choices:

1/3

not proportional

3/2

1

Answer 1

The answer is:Not proportional

Answer 2

Answer: not proportional

Explanation:

The constant is called the coefficient of proportionality if one variable is always the product of the other variable and a constant. And the variables are said to be directly proportional.

In the given table , let the variables are proportional then the constant of proportion(k)=
`(y)/(x)`

`\Rightarrow\ k=(3)/(2)`=1.5

`\Rightarrow\ k=(7)/(4)`=1.45

⇒ k is not a constant of proportionality.

⇒ the variables x and y are not proportional.
