The constant of proportionality can be determined by finding the slope of the graph, which is the ratio of the change in laps to the change in time.
Looking at the graph, the change in laps is 2 and the change in time is 3. So, the constant of proportionality is 2/3.
Therefore, the answer is C.
As for point A, the coordinates are (2, 3). In the context of the problem, this means that if Jim runs for 3 minutes, he completes 2 laps.
Jim runs laps around his block every morning before school. The graph shows a proportional relationship between time in minutes and the number of laps completed.
