Question

Yoshi earns a commission of eight dollars on sales of $200 the amount of commission yes she earns is directly proportional to the sales what is the constant of proportionality of Yoshi sales commission

Answer 1

k = constant of proportionality = 1/25

Explanation:

Let

Amount of commission = x

Sales = y

Amount of commission she earns is directly proportional to the sales

x = k * y

Where,

k = constant of proportionality

what is the constant of proportionality of Yoshi sales commission

x = k * y

x = $8

y = $200

x = k * y

8 = k * 200

8 = 200k

k = 8/200

k = 1/25

k = constant of proportionality = 1/25
