Answer:

The constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities. Two quantities are directly proportional when they increase and decrease at the same rate. The constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other.

Which equation represents a line that passes through (2, -1/2) and has a slope of 3?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: y= 3x -  6\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the slope and a set of coordinates we can insert them into the formula y=mx+b and find what b is.

y=mx+b

-1/2=3(2)+b

-1/2=6+b

-1/2-6=6-6+b

-6 1/2=b

Therefore the equation is y=3x -  6\frac{1}{2}

Which of the following is the equation of a line that passes through the points (1,6) and (2,1)
anastassius [24]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

To calculate m use the slope formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 1)

m = \frac{1-6}{2-1} = - 5, hence

y = - 5x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (1, 6), then

6 = - 5 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 5 = 11

y = - 5x + 11 → A

How would I use factoring to write equivalent expressions for the following expressions?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

4(a + 6)

3(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring is just rewriting an expression into the parts that multiply together to make the original...like if I had a 100 but decided instead to write 4×25 or if I had 25x I wrote 5(5x) .

If you look at your

4a + 24

You're looking for whatever is the same in both pieces (the 4a and also the 24) So there is a 4 in 4a and there is also a 4 "in" 24 (as in 4×6 is 24)

So if you pull out that 4 and throw it up front, whatever is left behind goes into a pair of parentheses.

4 (____ + ____)

4(a + 6)

This is your factored form bc if you multiply that 4 back in you'll get the original expression back again.

4a + 24

= 4(a + 6)

It's like factoring is "un-distributive" property.

Theres a 3 in 3x and also in 12

3x - 12

= 3(x - 4)
