Answer:

[tex]k=\frac{32}{5}[/tex],  [tex]y=\frac{32}{5}x[/tex]

[tex]k=6.4[/tex], [tex]y=6.4x[/tex]

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]k=\frac{y}{x}[/tex] or [tex]y=kx[/tex]

Find the value of the constant of proportionality k

take any ordered pair from the data

For x=25, y=160

[tex]k=\frac{y}{x}[/tex]

substitute the values of x and y

[tex]k=\frac{160}{25}[/tex]

simplify

[tex]k=\frac{32}{5}[/tex]

The linear equation is equal to

[tex]y=\frac{32}{5}x[/tex]

or

[tex]y=6.4x[/tex]
