\"weekly allowance A of a child varies directly as their grade level G\"; this means, \"A=kG\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\" the average allowance of an 8th grade student is $8.56 per week\", means \"8.56=k%2A8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"k=8.56%2F8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"k=1.07\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now you have a formula for A, and you know the proportionality constant, k.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
