Question

proportional relationship. Vivian says that cannot be true because the constants ofMindy says that the equations p =1.59 and {o= q both represent the sameproportionality are different. Which student do you agree with? Explain.

Answer 1

We have two equations:

$\begin{gathered} p=1.5q \\ \frac{2}{3}p=q \end{gathered}$

We would like to know if those represent the same proportional relationship or don't.

For doing so, we remember that a constant of proportionality
