Answer:

The constant of proportionality is equal to sixty

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form [tex]y/x=k[/tex] or [tex]y=kx[/tex]

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem we have

[tex]y=60x[/tex]

so

[tex]m=k=60[/tex]

therefore

The constant of proportionality is equal to sixty
