Answer:

It was difficult reading the question, as written. Check my assumptions.

Step-by-step explanation:

"five more than the product of two and a number,

decreased by seven"

---

Let the "number" be a.

We are told "five more than . ." means +5,

"the product of two and a number" means 2a,

"decreased by seven" mean -7

Put the statements together to obtain:

+5+2a-7

Simplify to 2a-2

Evaluate when a = 8:

2a-2

2(8)-2

16-2

= 14

Which situation represents a proportional relationship?

Natalka [10]

Answer:

B) Jack biked 5 miles in 25 minutes and 8 miles in 40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y=kx$

The ratio between the two variables is a constant called constant of proportionality k

$k=y/x$

<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>

A) Julie sold 4 necklaces for $12 and 9 necklaces for $25.

$\frac{4}{12}=\frac{9}{25}$

Multiply in cross

$4(25)=9(12)\\100\neq108$

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship

B) Jack biked 5 miles in 25 minutes and 8 miles in 40 minutes.

$\frac{5}{25}=\frac{8}{40}$

Multiply in cross

$5(40)=8(25)\\200=200$

Is true

therefore

The situation represent a proportional relationship

C) Larry packed 24 apples in 6 boxes and 46 apples in 9 boxes

$\frac{24}{6}=\frac{46}{9}$

Multiply in cross

$24(9)=46(6)\\216\neq276$

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship

D) Allie put 14 pieces of candy in 2 bags and 30 pieces of candy in 4 bags

$\frac{14}{2}=\frac{30}{4}$

Multiply in cross

$14(4)=30(2)\\56\neq60$

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship
