Question

Jesse drives to work. The distance Jesse’s car travels (d) on a number of gallons of gas (g) is given by the equation d = 15g. The constant of proportionality in terms of distance traveled per gallon of gas is

Answer 1

The proportionality constant is 1/15.

Answer 2

The constant of proportionality is 1/15

Explanation:

Constant of proportionality =
`(Distance Traveled)/(Gallons of Gas)`
`= (d)/(g)`

`(d)/(g) = (1)/(15)`
