Answer 1

Answer:

s= number of shirts

3/2= constant of proportionality

Step-by-step explanation:

Josh takes a load of dress shirts to the dry cleaners. The amount he pays for dry cleaning (

f. is given by the equation f=3/2s, where s is the number of shirts. What is the constant of proportionality in terms of the cost per shirt?

Given:

f= 3 / 2s

Where,

f= amount Josh paid for dry cleaning

s= number of shirts

3= constant of proportionality

2= amount paid per shirt

For example, if Josh took 3 shirts to the dry cleaner, the amount Josh will pay is

f= 3 / 2s

= 3 / 2(3)

= 3 / 6

= 1 / 2

f= 1 /2
