O 3
O 5/8
O 8/5
O 13
7) Choose the correct answer.
If y = kx and x = 9 when y = 7, what is the constant of proportionality?
O 2
O 7/9
O 9/7

Answer

  1. To find the constant of proportionality k, use the equation y = kx. Given y = 8 and x = 5, solve for k:

    8 = k * 5

    k = 8/5

    Answer: 8/5

  2. To find the constant of proportionality k, use the equation y = kx. Given y = 7 and x = 9, solve for k:

    7 = k * 9

    k = 7/9

    Answer: 7/9
