Constant of Proportionality and Tables

Front

What is the Constant of Proportionality?

Back

It is the number that stays the same or equal because the given values are proportional.

Front

How do you find the Constant of Proportionality in a table?

Back

Divide the output value by the input value for corresponding pairs.

Front

If the input is 3 and the output is 12, what is the Constant of Proportionality?

Back

4 (because 12 ÷ 3 = 4).

Front

If the input is 9 and the output is 36, what is the Constant of Proportionality?

Back

4 (because 36 ÷ 9 = 4).

Front

What does it mean if there is no Constant of Proportionality in a table?

Back

It means the values are not proportional and do not maintain a constant ratio.

Front

If the Constant of Proportionality is 0.25, what does that indicate?

Back

For every 1 unit of input, the output is 0.25 units.

Front

What is the Constant of Proportionality if the input is 4 and the output is 10?

Back

2.5 (because 10 ÷ 4 = 2.5).

Front

If the Constant of Proportionality is 1.25, what does that mean for the input of 4?

Back

The output would be 5 (because 1.25 x 4 = 5).

Front

What is an example of a table with a Constant of Proportionality of 7?

Back

Input: 1, Output: 7; Input: 2, Output: 14; Input: 3, Output: 21.

Front

If the input is 5 and the output is 0.25, what is the Constant of Proportionality?

Back

0.05 (because 0.25 ÷ 5 = 0.05).
