In a proportional relationship, the constant of proportionality is the number you can multiply each value of x by to get the related value of y. You can use this idea to figure out whether a set of values is in a proportional relationship. Divide each value of y by the related value of x. Do you get the same number every time? In our ice cream example, $2 divided by 1 scoop equals 2. $4 divided by 2 scoops also equals 2. And $6 divided by 3 scoops…you get the picture! The relationship’s proportional, and the constant is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.

1. make -15.66 ÷   5.8 a fraction. then divide.

2. simplify.  

3. final answer.  

step-by-step explanation:

for volume, add base x height x width

8(4)^8=72^feet to say that the total can conclude to 8(4) which as you know would mean 8 x 4. that equals 32w. 32^ could make a 72 answer as well. but your coefficent will remain w so your answer is 72w.
