Question

Find the constant of proportionality when x = 2 and y = 1.5.Record your answer and fill in the bubbles on your answer document. Be sure to usethe correct place value.

Answer 1

If y is proportional to x, we have this equation:

`y=kx`

If x = 2 and y = 1.5, then the constant is:

`k=(y)/(x)=(1.5)/(2)=0.75`

The constant of proportionality is k = 0.75
