During your morning workout you run for 20 seconds for every 3 seconds you sprint. Write a proportion that shows the relationship between the number of seconds you run, the number of seconds you sprint, and the constant of proportionality​

In the part 1 we calculate the constant of proportionality

k=20/3

Remember that

y -----> the number of seconds you run

x -----> the number of seconds you sprint

so

The linear equation that represent the relationship between x and y is

y=(20/3)x

the proprtion is

y/x=20/3

k=20/3

Part 3

Rewrite the proportion as an equation to represent the number of seconds you run in terms of the number of seconds you sprint

the proportion is

y/x=20/3

frewrite as equation

y=(20/3)x
