Questions 1 - 10
1

In the equation provided, identify the constant of proportionality (i.e. the unit rate).

Explanation

The constant of proportionality can be identified using the following general equation:

In this equation, the variable, , represents the constant of proportionality.

Let's look at the given equation:

In this example, is in the place of ; therefore, is the constant of proportionality.

2

Identify the constant of proportionality (i.e. the unit rate) in the provided graph.

5

Explanation

In order to determine the constant of proportionality, we need to divide the quantities from the coordinate by the quantities from the coordinate. In order for the graph to show a direct proportion, each quotient should equal the same value.

First, we need to find a series of coordinate points:

5 1

Now that we have a series of coordinate points, we can divide to find the constant of proportionality:

All of the quotients are the same value; therefore, this graph does show direct proportion and the constant of proportionality is .

3

Identify the constant of proportionality (i.e. the unit rate) in the provided graph.

13

Explanation

In order to determine the constant of proportionality, we need to divide the quantities from the coordinate by the quantities from the coordinate. In order for the graph to show a direct proportion, each quotient should equal the same value.

First, we need to find a series of coordinate points:

13 1

Now that we have a series of coordinate points, we can divide to find the constant of proportionality:

All of the quotients are the same value; therefore, this graph does show direct proportion and the constant of proportionality is .
