In her science classroom Jane noticed that the lengths (in inches) and the weights (in ounces) of the class's pet snakes were directly related by the equation y = kx, where x is the length and y is the weight. Use the information in the table to find k, the constant of proportionality.
A k = 2.5
B k = 1.5
C k = 2.0
D k = 3.0

Answer 1

No ideas on any of these? The formula y=kx was explicitly handed to you several times. What don't you understand?

Answer 2

Oobleck if you're going to be rude just don't answer it's as simple as that. I'm sure you most likely do not have the real answer because it seems like you're upset because no one answered.

Answer 7

what's the answer to: Find the constant of proportionality for the graph and write in the from y = kx

Answer 8

To find the constant of proportionality (k) when given an equation of the form y = kx, you simply need to look at the coefficient in front of x. So for example:

a) y = 5x: k = 5
b) y = 3x: k = 3
c) y = 15x: k = 15
d) y = 1/5x: k = 1/5

I hope that helps!
