The table below shows the number of color pages a printer prints out over a period of time

The constant of proportionality is 3/2

B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table of Time (x) and Number of pages (y)

In x minutes printer prints y number of pages.

As we know the it would be direct proportion because if time increase number of printing page increase.

Thus, y=kx

x is time ( independent variable)

y is number of pages (dependent variable)

k is constant of proportionality.

From table we will take the value of x and y and to solve for k

x=2, y=3

3=2k

Hence, The constant of proportionality is 3/2

your answer would be b

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
