Sagot :

This chart represents a proportional relationship. The rate of change will be 4.

What is the constant of proportionality?

Firstly, there is a proportional relationship.

Two values x  and y are said to be in a proportional relationship if x=ky, where x and y are variables and k is a constant.

The constant k is called the constant of proportionality.

Given;

x y

1 4

2 8

3 12

4 16

Here, x = ky

put the first value

k = 1/4

This chart represents a proportional relationship.

So the rate of change will be

[tex]Rate = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\\\\Rate = \dfrac{8 - 4}{2 - 1}\\\\Rate = 4[/tex]
