Enter the values for the variables (X and Y) to find the constant of proportionality with steps.
Use this calculator to calculate the constant of proportionality (K) for the given dependent (X) and independent (Y) variables. A tool helps you to find the constant value that defines the proportional relationship.
“The constant value of the ratio between two proportional quantities”
Two quantities are said to be in relation to proportionality when their multiplier is constant.
A proportional relationship between two quantities x and y which has a constant of proportionality k is indicated by the constant of proportionality equation given as under:
y = k * x
To find the constant K, the mathematical equation expresses this relationship as:
k = y/x
Where:
What is the constant of proportionality if y=20 x=5, and y ∝ x?
Solution:
As we know y varies directly proportionally with x. We can write the equation of the proportionality constant as y = kx.
Substitute the given values of x and y, and solve for
20 = k (5)
k = 20 ÷ 5 = 4
Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 8.
What is a constant of proportionality for direct and indirect variation initial value = 17 units, constant of proportionality k = 6?
Solution:
Constant of Proportionality, y = k / x
= 6 / 17
= 0.352
Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 0.352.
When two variables or quantities are directly or indirectly proportional to each other, then their relationship can be expressed as y = kx or k =y/x. Where k determines how the two variables or quantities are related to one another. You can calculate the value of k (proportionality constant) by subjecting this online constant of proportionality calculator.
No, mass is not a proportionality constant. Mass or weight is a universal constant. It is measured in Kilograms and grams
