Students will be able to:
use the constant of proportionality to write equations that represent proportional relationships.
use equations to solve problems involving proportional relationships.
Equations in the form y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality, can be used to represent proportional relationships and solve problems.
Two proportional quantities x and y are related by a constant multiple, or the constant of proportionality, k.
You can represent a proportional relationship using the equation y = kx.
