Question

What is the constant of proportionality for the following table?

Answer 1

Answer:

$k = 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The table

Required

Determine the constant of proportionality (k)

Represent the time with T and the amount of water with W

k is calculated as follows;

$k = \frac{W}{T}$

Pick any corresponding values of W and T

$W = 5 \\T=1$

So

$k =\frac{5}{1}$

$k = 5$

Hence, the constant of proportionality is 5
