What is the formula to find the constant of proportionality?

Back

The formula is k = y/x, where k is the constant of proportionality, y is the dependent variable, and x is the independent variable.

If a table shows values (2, 4), (3, 6), (4, 8), what is the constant of proportionality?

Back

The constant of proportionality is 2, as each value of y is double the corresponding value of x.
