In the table, x and y are in a proportional relationship. у 3 -5.4 5 -9.0 9 -16.2 12 -21.6 Let x be the independent variable. What is the value of the constant of proportionality? А -1.8 B -1.4 C 1.4 D 1.8​

A. -1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable, therefore constant of proportionality would be:

k = y/x

Using any pair of values from the table, we can find k. Let's use (3, -5.4):

k = y/x = -5.4/3

k = -1.8

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.
