Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The constant of proportionality is the value that relates the dependent variable (y) to the independent variable (x) in a direct variation equation. In the given equation y = 38x, we can see that the dependent variable (y) is directly proportional to the independent variable (x) because there is a constant multiple of 38.

To find the constant of proportionality, we can compare the given equation with the standard form of a direct variation equation: y = kx, where k represents the constant of proportionality.

In this case, we have y = 38x, and by comparing it to y = kx, we can see that the constant of proportionality is k = 38.
