1 UNIT RATE & CONSTANT OF PROPORTIONALITY

2 CONSTANT A CONSTANT is a specific number. This value stays the same. VARIABLE A VARIABLE is a letter used to represent any number. This value can change. PROPORTIONAL RELATIONSHIP y=kx A PROPORTIONAL RELATIONSHIP is a set of ordered pairs (represented on a table or graph) which follows a rule with the formula y=kx. kCONSTANT OF PROPORTIONALITY k is a constant which we call the CONSTANT OF PROPORTIONALITY.

3 How to Find the Constant of Proportionality:  Divide to find the Unit Rate  y/x = k  Example:
