What is the constant of proportionality? Write an equation that relates the number of pages read (y) to the length of time in hours spent reading. (x)

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Constant of proportionality is given as . Where k is the constant of proportionality, y = number of pages read while x is the corresponding time taken to read the pages.

Constant of proportionality will be the same for each given pair on the table. We can take any pair to find k.

Constant of proportionality = 26

The relationship between number of pages read and time taken is a proportional relationship, hence, the equation that describes this relationship would be:

Substitute the value of k into the equation

This equation represents the relationship, and hence can be used to complete the missing values of the table as shown below:

Length of time (x) ==> no of pages read (y)

3 ==>

156 = 26x; x = 156/26 = 6 ==> 156

8 ==>

234 = 26x; x = 234/26 = 9 ==> 234

a

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
