To find:The constant of proportionality if the set of given numbers is proportional.

Answer to Problem 4IP
The set of given numbers isproportional and the constant of proportionality is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:The table for the given set of numbers is:
Cans of concentrate | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
Cans of water | 4 | 8 | 12 | 16 |
Calculation:
The ratio of set of numbers in column 2 is
The ratio of set of numbers in column 3 is:
The ratio of set of numbers in column 4 is:
The ratio of set of numbers in column 2 is:
So, the constant of proportionality is same and is
Therefore, the given set of numbers is proportionaland the constant of proportionality is
