How to Find Constant of Proportionality?
A step-by-step guide to finding the constant of proportionality Direct variation: The equation of direct proportionality is \(y = kx\), which shows that as \(x\) increases, \(y\) also increases at the same rate. Example: the cost of each item \((y)\) is directly proportional to the number of items \((x)\) purchased, expressed as \(y ∝ x\). […]
