Q. Which equation has a constant of proportionality equal to 11 ?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) y=1011x y=\frac{10}{11} x \newline(B) y=78x y=\frac{7}{8} x \newline(C) y=315x y=\frac{3}{15} x \newline(D) y=x y=x
  1. Identify Constant of Proportionality: The constant of proportionality in a linear equation y=kxy = kx is the value of kk, where kk is a constant. We need to find the equation where kk equals 11.
  2. Examine Option (A): Let's examine option (A) y=1011xy = \frac{10}{11}x. The constant of proportionality here is 1011\frac{10}{11}, which is not equal to 11.
  3. Look at Option (B): Now, let's look at option (B) y=78xy = \frac{7}{8}x. The constant of proportionality here is 78\frac{7}{8}, which is also not equal to 11.
  4. Consider Option (C): Next, we consider option (C) y=315xy = \frac{3}{15}x. Simplifying 315\frac{3}{15} gives us 15\frac{1}{5}, so the constant of proportionality is 15\frac{1}{5}, not 11.
  5. Check Option (D): Finally, we check option (D) y=xy = x. Here, the constant of proportionality is 11 because yy is directly equal to xx without any other factors. This means that for every unit increase in xx, yy increases by the same amount, which is the definition of a constant of proportionality of 11.
