A garden hose fills a 2-gallon bucket in 5 seconds. The number of gallons, g (/), is proportional to the number of seconds, t (x), that the water is running.
What is the constant of proportionality? k=-

The constant of proportionality = k = 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Also given that The number of gallons, g (/), is proportional to the number of

seconds, t (x).

i.e.

g ∝ t

g = k × t

k = g / t

as

g = 2

t = 5

Thus,

k = g / t

  = 2 / 5

Thus, the constant of proportionality = k = 2/5

(- 1, 0 )

step-by-step explanation:

an x- intercept is where the function crosses the x- axis.

to find the x- intercept/s look for the value of x when f(x) = 0

from the given table there are 3 values of x where f(x) = 0

when x = - 1, x = 2, x = 3

the one that is listed is (- 1, 0 )
