Step-by-step explanation:
We don't know the drivers' names or when or where they started. We have made the assumption that the second equation pertains to Kylie.
Each line is plotted with the appropriate slope and y-intercept. The slope is the coefficient of x, and represents the "rise" for each unit of "run" to the right.
For proportionality constant problems, set up the equation as,
,
Where x and y are the two variables you are comparing and <em>K </em>is the proportionality constant. If we take <em>Caramel Corn </em>values as x and <em>Cheddar Corn </em>values as y, and then solve for <em>K </em>for each ratio lines, we will get the same answer. Let's check.
,
, and
.
Hence, the proportionality constant, in this case <em>K,</em> is equal to or 1.5. First answer choice is correct.
ANSWER: 1.5
