Given:

The amount of money y club members made for washing x cars is

y=5x

To find:

The constant Proportionality.

Solution:

If y is directly proportional to x, then

$y\propto x$

y=kx ...(i)

where, k is constant of proportionality.

The amount of money y club members made is proportional to number of cars washing x.

We have,

y=5x ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

k=5

Therefore, the constant proportionality is 5.
