The constant of proportionality can be found by dividing the number of rolls of paper towels by the number of cases ordered. Let's calculate the ratios for each set of data:
For the first set: 12 rolls / 1 case = 12/1 = 12
For the second set: 36 rolls / 3 cases = 36/3 = 12
For the third set: 60 rolls / 5 cases = 60/5 = 12
For the fourth set: 120 rolls / 10 cases = 120/10 = 12
We can see that the ratio of 12 appears consistently in each set of data. The constant of proportionality is (12, 12).
Bot use the table to answer the question. Number of Cases Ordered: 1, 3, 5, 10. Number of Rolls of Paper Towels: 12, 36, 60, 120. S restaurant is placing an order for paper towels. The data table shows the amount of paper towel rolls compared to the number of cases. At which ratio in the data does the constant of proportionality appear? Write your answer as an ordered pair inside the parentheses provided. ( )
