Donte is told that for a particular math problem the value of y is always 8 times the value of donte writes the equation y=8x to show the relationship between z and y what is the constant of proportionay

1 answer

If the value of y is always 8 times the value of x, then the equation showing the relationship between z and y would be z = ky, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Since the given information states that y = 8x, we can substitute this value into the equation for z to get:

z = k(8x)

Therefore, the constant of proportionality would be 8k.
