QuestionWhat is the constant of proportionality for hours and wages given: Hours: 3, 5, 7, 9; Wages: \$38.25, \$63.75, \$89.25, \$114.70?

Studdy Solution
Perform the division to calculate the constant of proportionality.
$$Constant\, of\, proportionality = \frac{\$63.75}{5\, hours} = \$12.75 / hour$$Since the constant of proportionality is the same for both pairs, we can conclude that the constant of proportionality for the entire table is $12.75 per hour. Therefore, the answer is B.$12.75 per hour.
