Answer:
Proportionality constant is 0.625.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two quantities P and Q are said to be PROPORTIONAL to each other
P ∝ Q if and only if for every values of P and Q.
Here k: PROPORTIONALITY CONSTANT
Now, here in the given table:
(a) Hot Pepper = 5 and Corn Caramel Corn = 8
So, here H = 5 and C = 8
(c) Hot Pepper = 10 and Corn Caramel Corn = 16
So, here H = 10 and C = 16
(a) Hot Pepper = 15 and Corn Caramel Corn = 24
So, here H = 15 and C = 24
in each case, k = 0.625
Hence,PROPORTIONALITY constant is 0.625.
