PLS HELP ME ASAP WITH 42!! (MUST SHOW WORK!!) + LOTS OF POINTS!! *best if show picture with work!!*
ddd [48]
I thought this would be simple, as I'm familiar with algebra and not really "The constant of proportionality," but I will do my best.

So this said "Constant of proportionality," is referring to basically the answers for the equation when X equals certain numbers.

Make a table of different answers when you plug in X and you get the 'Constant of proportionality.'

y = 2.5x + 3
y = 2.5(1) + 3
y = 2.5 + 3
y = 5.5

Since we plugged in 1 for X and got 5.5 for Y, our input and output is (1, 5.5)

Replace X for a different value, and you will get a bunch of different numbers that will in essence be your function inputs and outputs.  Make a table of these and you have your answer.

EXAMPLE - 
-= x =-   -= y =-
-= 1 =-   -= 5.5 =-
-= 2 =-   -= 8 =-
-= 3 =-   -= 11.5 =-
-= 4 =-   -= 13 =-


So there you have it.  I hope this helps!  If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask.
