Question

Which equation shows a proportional relationship?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D i.e. y = 1/2 x is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when 'y' varies directly with 'x', we get the equation

y ∝ x

y = kx

where k is the constant of proportionality.

In our case, the only equation which maps in accordance with y = kx is y = 1/2x.

i.e.

y = 1/2 x

here k = 1/2

Thus, k = 1/2 is the constant of proportionality.

Therefore, option D i.e. y = 1/2 x is the correct answer.
