Question

Tammy rents an apartment close to her school campus. The amount that she spends on rent is given by the equation r = 355m, where r is the amount spent on rent and m is the number of months she stays in the apartment. What is the constant of proportionality (r to m) for this proportional relationship?
A.
1/355
B.
1/177.5
C.
177.5
D.
355

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 355 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tammy rents an apartment close to her school campus. The amount that she spends on rent is given by the equation :

r = 355 m

where r is the amount spent on rent and

m is the number of months she stays in the apartment.

By definition of proportional relationship:

⇒ k = 355 m

Therefore,  the constant of proportionality (r to m) for this proportional relationship is, 355

Hope this helps you! good luck!

Answer 2

Answer:

Option :D

Step-by-step explanation:

Tammy rents an apartment close to her school campus. The equation that is given is this one:

r = 355m,

where r is the amount spend on the rent.

m is the number of months.

In order to get the constant proportionality of r to m in this relationship, then we can set a constant k variable.

r = 355 m (k)

k = 1 r / 355 m

1 hour spent, it takes you to spend 355.
