Answer:

k=2/3

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x = k or y = kx

In this problem we have 3y = 2x

Isolate the variable y

Divide by 3 both sides

y = 2/3x

Remember that

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line

The slope of the line m is

m = 2/3

therefore

The constant of proportionality k is

k = 2/3

I hope this helped have a wonderful day/night ! <3 (depends what time it is)

I've already been complemented twice on my previous answer, but then I discovered that I mis-read the question. My entire original answer was wrong, and I have to delete it.

I don't believe that any number can satisfy both of those conditions.
I'll say the question has no answer.
