Various options: y is directly proportional to k, with x as the constant of proportionality; y is directly proportional to x, with k as the constant of proportionality; x is inversely proportional to k, with y as the constant of proportionality; x is directly proportional to y, with 1/k as the constant of proportionality; k is directly proportional to y, with 1/x as the constant of proportionality; and k is inversely proportional to x, with y as the constant of proportionality.
It is the constant of proportionality.
When there is a direct proportionality y = kx y = 75 k = 15 → 75 = 15x → x = 75/15 = 5
The state of being in proportion.
If two variables are in direct relationship then the ratio of the two variables is known as the constant of proportion between them. In algebraic form, if X and Y are the two variables, then direct proportionality implies that Y = cX and c is the constant of proportionality.
The constant of proportionality for y = 0.95x is 0.95
The constant of proportionality for y = 0.95x is 0.95
The constant of proportionality for y = 0.95x is 0.95

The constant of proportionality in the relationship y = 30x is 30. This means that y is always 30 times the value of x.
answer: 2.5 :)
If the equation is y = kx then the constant of proportionality is k.
If two variables, X and Y, are in direct proportion then Y = c*X for some fixed value c. This value, c, is the constant of proportionality for this relationship.
It is 5.
It is the constant of proportionality.

The linear function has the form y=mx+b, which I expect you have heard of. The 'b' is the y-intercept, and the 'm' is the slope. A constant of proportionality is something you have with direct variation, which is where the line goes through (0,0). This happens when 'b' equals zero. So now the equation is just y=mx, and the constant of proportionality is 'm'.
