Answer:
17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
180 = 40+ 8x
140 = 8x
17.5 = x
Y=25x is proportional. Unit rate is 25
The other 2 aren't because they have a y-intercept and don't cross the orgin

Answer:
not sure how to really answer this question.
Set up a proportion to describe this relationship. So, for every 2 cats, there is five dogs. Therefore, “c” can represent your unknown quantity for every 35 animals.
2/5 = c/35
Cross multiply, multiplying the numerator/top number of the first fraction/ratio, by the denominator/bottom number in the second fraction/ratio.
2 • 35 = 70
Then, Cross multiply, multiplying the numerator/top number of the second fraction/ratio, by the denominator/bottom number in the first fraction/ratio.
C • 5 = 5c
So, now the problem shows both products as equal to each other.
70 = 5c
To solve for the variable, “c”, you must isolate the variable, by performing the opposite/inverse operation of multiplication, since that will undo the multiplication, for the variable to stand alone. Therefore, divide both sides of the equation by 5.
70/5 = 5c/5
14 = c
So, there is 14 cats out of 35 animals.
