What is the constant of proportionality in the equation y=2xy

2 is the constant of proportionality in the equation y = 2x .

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of constant of proportionality

When two variables are directly proportional to each others .

Let us assume that u and v .

u \propto vu∝v

Than the equation becomes u= kv

Where k is called the constant of proportionality .

Thus in the question x and y are proportional variables .

i.e

y \propto xy∝x

y = kx

Where k is called the constant of proportionality .

Compare the equation y = kx with y=2x .

Thus

k = 2

Therefore 2 is the constant of proportionality in the equation y = 2x

the explanation is not mine only the answer

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2

yeah i know the problem you need. i am taking it right now. the answer is step 3
