Respuesta :

The constant of proportionality in terms of the number of flowers per plant is 5.

What is the proportional relationship?

If two quantities varies directly to each other i.e if y varies proportional to x then

y =kx   .....[1]  where, k is the constant of proportionality.

Suppose, y represents the number of roses and x represents the number of plants.

Given is the graph shows a proportional relationship between the number of plants and the number of flowers on the plants.  The graph attached below has the coordinates points,

(0, 0)

(1, 5)

(2, 10)

(3, 15)

(4, 20)

Substitute any coordinate points like (3, 15) in above equation to find k.

15 =k x 3

k = 5

Therefore, the constant of proportionality in terms of the number of flowers per plant is 5.
