Question

Match each table of information to its constant of proportionality.

Answer 1

Table 1 is 2, Table 2 is 10.

Explanation:

Table 1: The constant of proportionality is 2 because 4/2 is 2, 6/3 is 2, etc.

Table 2: The constant of proportionality is 10 because 20/2 is 10, 30/3 is 10, etc.

Answer 2

Table 1: 2

Table 2: 10

Explanation:

Constant of proportionality - the ratio between two proportional quantities.

We see that the ratio between the two rows of numbers in the first table is 2 because (4 / 2 = 2), (6 / 3 = 2), (8 / 4 = 2) and so on and so forth.

We see that the ratio between the two rows of numbers in the second table is 10 because (20 / 2 = 10), (30 / 3 = 10), (40 / 4 = 10) and so on and so forth.
