Help (04.03) The table shows the ratio of caramel corn to hot pepper corn in a bag. What is the constant of proportionality?

Hot Pepper Corn Caramel Corn
5 8
10 16
15 24
3
8
1.6
0.625

0.625

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, we merely just divide the rates by each other. Ratios are just the fractions of two terms, after all.

Therefore, the answer would be 5/8, or 0.625.

To verify, we can use the other values given in your question.

10/16 is also an answer, but when you simplify, you get 5/8, which gives the same answer- 0.625.

You can do the same with the other ratios given.

15/24 simplified is 5/8, which, once again, is 0.625.

Thus, I can say with certainty that the answer is 0.625.

not only in mathematics, scientific proof also are required in the other field of science. also maths proofs are of particular structure, containing steps and logics. so proving is like doing science, it is science. that's why it is important to prove. 

an inaccurate proof leads to errors, or stating results that are not accurate.  which wil mess the probelm up you dont want this
