A fundraising company agrees to donate an extra $75 for every $100 the school raises through selling cookies. Part A: What is the constant of proportionality

3/4 0r 0.75

Explanation:

Let E represent the extra cash.

Let R represent the amount raised.

From the question given above, we can say that:

The extra cash (E) is directly proportional to the amount raised (R) i.e

Extra cash (E) ∝ Amount raised (R)

E ∝ R

E = KR

NOTE: K is the constant of proportionality.

With the above formula, we can obtain the value of K as follow:

Extra cash (E) = $ 75

Amount raised (R) = $ 100

Constant of proportionality (K) =?

E = KR

75 = K × 100

Divide both side by 100

K = 75/100

K = 3/4 0r 0.75

Thus, the constant of proportionality is 3/4 0r 0.75

answer: option c. i.e. electric current flowing “downhill” from the negative electrode to the positive electrode in a battery

explanation:

the water analogy to the circuits define the pipes (water flows) to the electric current. now, we know that the electric current flows from the positive terminal to the circuit (as shown in the diagram attached).

hence, option c is the correct answer.
