Answer:

k = 0.381cm/gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount a tree grows in one month be x

Let amount of water it is given be y

If the amount a tree grows in one month is directly proportional to the amount of water it is given, then;

x ∝ y

x = ky

k is the constant of proportionality

k = x/y

Given

x = 8cm

y = 21 gallons

k = 8/21

k = 0.381cm/gallon
