Question

Y’all I need help with this

Answer 1

Answer:

k = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quantities are in direct proportion then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion

The y- axis is number of cups and x- axis is pounds of sugar

To find k use any of the 5 points highlighted on the graph

Using (8, 40 ), then

40 = 8k ( divide both sides by 8 )

5 = k
