A group of hikers is packing trail mix. The direct variation equation y=34x shows the relationship between number of hikers, x , and number of cups of trail mix, y . What is the constant of proportionality in this situation?(1 point) The constant of proportionality is .

Answer 1

In the equation \( y = 34x \), the constant of proportionality is represented by the coefficient of \( x \).

Here, the coefficient is \( 34 \).

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 34.
