Answer:

  • k = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

One pair of coordinates is sufficient to work out the constant of proportionality.

Equation in general form:

  • y = kx

and

  • Point (3, 36)

Substitute x- and y- coordinates into equation and find the value of k:

  • 36 = k*3
  • k = 36/3
  • k = 12
