Answer:

d: y=5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know a few points: (2,10), (3,15), (4,20), we can use two of them to first find the slope. The equation for the slope is (Increase in y)/(increase in x).

1. Slope between (2,10) and (3,15) is 5/1 which is 5. So the slope will be 5.

2. With the slope, we know that our equation will be: y=5x+b. To find b, we can replace x and y with another point. 20 = 5(4)+b. --> 20 = 20 +b. Now we know that b equals 0.

Our final equation will be y = 5x.

RECHECKING!

I'll recheck whether my answer is right or not using Desmos (A online graphing calculator).

I added an image down below, and I drew the points in blue. This shows that since the graph crosses all three points, it is correct.

WHY y=1/5x IS NOT CORRECT (based on your comments)

If you look at the points, the relationship between x and y is not 1/5. If you multiply something from x, it should become 10.

--> 2 times __ = 10

--> 3 times __ = 15

--> 4 times __ = 20

And clearly, __ will be 5. If it becomes 1/5, we won't get the right number of y.

This is why y=1/5 is not correct.

Hope this helps!

a triangle with vertices at A (-1,1), B(-2,1) C(-1,4) is translated. the image of vertex A has coordinate at (3,-1) determine th
Drupady [299]
For this case we have the following vertices:
 A (-1,1) --------> A '(3, -1)
 B (-2.1)
 C (-1,4)
 We note that the translation rule is:
 (x, y) -----------> (x + 4, y-2)
 Applying the translacion rule we have:
 B (-2, 1) -----------> (-2 + 4, 1-2) ------> B '(2, -1)
 C (-1, 4) -----------> (-1 + 4, 4-2) ------> C '(3, 2)
 Answer:
 
The image of vertex B or the image of Vertex C are:
 
B '(2, -1)
 
C '(3, 2)

40. Mike has two electric train sets: A and B. Each train is on its own circular track.
JulsSmile [24]
"He starts both trains at the same time. Train A returns to its starting point every 12 seconds and Train B returns to its starting point every 9 seconds". Basically, what you need to do is find the least common multiple. The least common multiple of 12 and 9 is 36, so the least amount of time, in seconds, that both trains will arrive at the starting points at the same time is 36 seconds.
