The video tutorial explains how to find the constant of proportionality, defined as the ratio of Y to X values, using both tables and graphs. It covers the formula K = y/x, demonstrates calculations with examples, and explains how to determine if data is proportional or nonproportional. The tutorial concludes with instructions for homework, emphasizing the importance of identifying the constant and its proportionality status.

What does the constant of proportionality represent in a mathematical context?

• The difference between x and y values

• The sum of x and y values

• The ratio of y to x values

• The product of x and y values
