Use the table to answer the question.
Hours Miles walked
14 1
12 2
34 3
1 4
It takes Julian 12 hour to walk 2 miles. He decides to start walking in his spare time, but because he wants to make sure he has enough time to go a desired distance he created the data table. At which ratio does the constant of proportionality appear?

The constant of proportionality appears at the ratio (12, 2).

Apologies for the incorrect response.
Let's reassess the given table of hours and miles walked:
Hours Miles walked
14 1
12 2
34 3
1 4
To find the ratio of the constant of proportionality, we need to compare the miles walked to the corresponding hours.
For example, let's consider the first data point (14, 1). Julian walked 1 mile in 14 hours.
The ratio of miles walked to hours for this data point is:
1 mile / 14 hours
The answer to this ratio is (1/14).
Therefore, the correct answer is:
(1, 14)
