Find and interpret the constant of proportionality in multiple representations.

Find k from a table

Problem

Use the table to find the constant of proportionality.

Big Picture

What this problem is really about

In y equals kx, the constant tells how many output units correspond to one input unit, so its calculation is y divided by x. We’ll use one complete table row to find that quotient, then repeat with the other rows. Agreement across all three pairs confirms that the value is the table’s common multiplier rather than a copied entry.
