Question

The variables x and y are proportional. Use the values to find the constant of proportionality. Then write an equation that relates x and y .

When y=72 , x=3 .

Answer 1

equation: y = 24x

Explanation:

if y and x is proportional,

y = kx

72 = k * 3

k = 24

→ Here the constant if 24

so the equation that relates x and y :

y = 24x
