Hey there :)
When we have a relationship like this: $\large\rm y=kx^2$
Then $\rm k$ is our constant of proportionality.

So in this equation,$$\large\rm 6y=9x^2$$Dividing by 6 gives us,$$\large\rm y=\frac96x^2$$So we can clearly see that 9/6 is our constant $\rm k$!

You'll need to simplify this value to match it up to the correct option. :)

@zepdrix none of them matched the correct answer tho.....

9/6 Reduce!! :O
Numerator and denominator are divisible by 3,
take a 3 out of each.
