Which equation represents a proportional relationship that has a constant of proportionality equal to One-fifth?

y = x minus one-fifth

y = x + one-fifth

y = one-fifth x

y = 5 x

Answer :

Answer:

Option C)

[tex]y = \dfrac{1}{5}x[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

[tex]y \propto x[/tex]

Removing the sign of proportionality and introducing the constant of proportionality, we have

[tex]y = kx[/tex]

where k is constant of proportionality.

We are given

[tex]k = \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

Putting value, we get,

[tex]y = \dfrac{1}{5}x = \dfrac{x}{5}[/tex]

Thus, the equation representing the relationship is

Option C)

[tex]y = \dfrac{1}{5}x[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Option (c)  y=1/5x
