Relationships can be represented using variables and equations
A proportional relationship can always be represented by Y = KX
This means, the dependent variable value can always be found by multiplying the independent variable by the constant of proportionality.

Birdhouses
Jackson and his grandfather constructed a model for a birdhouse. Many of their neighbors offered to buy the birdhouses. Jackson decided that building birdhouses could help him earn money for his summer camp, but he is not sure how long it will take him to finish all of the requests for birdhouses. If Jackson can build 7 birdhouses in 5 hours, write an equation that will allow Jackson to calculate the time it will take him to build any given number of birdhouses, assuming he works at a constant rate.
