For this case we have by definition, if "y" varies directly with "x", then it is true that:
[tex]y = kx[/tex]
Where:
k: It is the constant of proportionality
We have the following equation:
[tex]y = 2.5x[/tex]
So, as mentioned above we have to:
[tex]k = 2.5[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]k = 2.5[/tex]
Option B
