Question

Which equation represents a proportional relationship that has a constant of proportionality equal to One-fifth?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C)

$y = \dfrac{1}{5}x$  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$y \propto x$

Removing the sign of proportionality and introducing the constant of proportionality, we have

$y = kx$

where k is constant of proportionality.

We are given

$k = \dfrac{1}{5}$

Putting value, we get,

$y = \dfrac{1}{5}x = \dfrac{x}{5}$

Thus, the equation representing the relationship is

Option C)

$y = \dfrac{1}{5}x$

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Option (c)  y=1/5x
