We have a graph that relates the height and the width with a constant.

As this relation has only one constant, we need only one point in order to find its value.

We select one point like (w,h)=(1, 0.5).

Then, the constant is:


\begin{gathered} h=(k)/(w) \\ 0.5=(k)/(1) \\ k=0.5 \end{gathered}

Answer: The constant value is 0.5.
