Mathematics

Answer:

The proportionality constant is 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the proportionality constant

Let us view the two points as being points on a line

The constant of proportionality will be the slope of the line that connects the two points

Mathematically, we can use the formula for the slope of a line

We have this as;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x1,y1) = (20,8)

(x2,y2)= (25,10)

m = (10-8)/(25-20) = 2/5

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y=3x+2 and goes through the points (5,8)?
ira [324]
Parallel lines has equal slopes.

Line y = 3x + 2 has a slope of 3.

Required equation is y - 8 = 3(x - 5)
y = 3x - 15 + 8
y = 3x - 7
