The constant of proportionality can be identified by examining the change in the dependent variable (y-values) as the independent variable (x-values) increases by a constant amount.
In this case, the dependent variable (y-values) increases by 2 as the independent variable (x-values) increases by 14. Therefore, the constant of proportionality for this graph is 2/14, which can be simplified to 1/7.
Use the image to answer the question.
The image has a graph going from 0 to 84 (counting through 14 to 84) and the bottom grow of the graph is 0 to 12 there is a angle and the angle has a dot on every point (14 and 2, 28 and 4, 42 and 6, 56 and 8, 70 and 10, 84 and 12)
Using the points shown in the graph, identify the constant of proportionality for this graph.
