Determine the constant of proportionality for the graph below. Remember that constant of proportionality is k = yx

1 answer

To determine the constant of proportionality \( k \) from a graph where \( y \) is proportional to \( x \), you can use the formula \( k = \frac{y}{x} \).

  1. Identify a point (x, y) from the graph.
  2. Substitute the values of \( y \) and \( x \) into the formula \( k = \frac{y}{x} \).

For example, if you find that one of the points on the graph is \( (2, 6) \):

\[ k = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \]

The constant of proportionality \( k \) would be \( 3 \).

If you have specific coordinates from the graph to examine, please provide those, and I can help calculate \( k \) based on that information!
