Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

relationship between two variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant times the other


y=kx

where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable and k is the constant

so, looking at the options we have to find a equation that has the same form:

we have


y=0.5x

so, the option A is the correct one

where

the constant is 0.5

I hope this helps you
