All the answers to the given parts are mentioned below -

<h3>What is the general equation of a Straight line? How it represents a proportional relationship?</h3>

The general equation of a straight line is -

[y] = [m]x + [c]

where -

[m] is slope of line which tells the unit rate of change of [y] with respect to [x].

[c] is the y - intercept i.e. the point where the graph cuts the [y] axis.

y = mx also represents direct proportionality. We can write [m] as -

m = y/x

OR

y₁/x₁ = y₂/x₂

We have a cafeteria serves lemonade that is made from a powdered drink mix. There is a proportional relationship between the number of scoops of powdered drink mix and the amount of water needed to make it. For every 2 scoops of mix, one-half gallon of water is needed, and for every 6 scoops of mix, one and one-half gallons of water are needed.

We can write the proportional relationship as -

y = kx

Now, from the given information, we can write -

2 scoops need 0.5 gallon of water

6 scoops need 1.5 gallon of water

So -

k = 2/0.5

k = 2/(1/2)

k = 2 x 2 = 4

Equations that represents the relationship can be written as -

y = 4x + c

Now, 2 scoops need 0.5 gallon of water.

2 = 4 x 1/2 + c

2 = 2 + c

c = 0

So, the equation will be y = 4x.

Graph of y = 4x is attached at the end.

For 10 scoops of water -

10 = 4x

x = 2.5 gallons of water is needed.

Therefore, all the answers to the given parts are mentioned above.

<h2>Finding the y-intercept given the Graph of the Line</h2>

Answer:

The y-intercept is \boxed{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of line is just the point where the y-axis and the line. From the given line, we can see that the y-axis and the line that models the temperature on a certain winter day since sunrise (0,3). Also, the question just asked us for the y-coordinate of the y-intercept so 3

Nathan needs some paint for his bedroom. He finds two cans of white paint, four cans of green paint and three cans of pink paint
horsena [70]

The probability of randomly selecting a can of pink paint is P = 1/3, so the correct option is A.

<h3>What is the chance that he will paint his bedroom pink?</h3>

Assuming that all the cans of paint have the same probability of being randomly selected, the probability that he will choose a pink can is equal to the quotient between the number of pink cans and the total number of cans.

There are 2 cans of white, 4 cans of green, and 3 cans of pink, so a total of 9 cans.

Then the probability is:

P = 3/9 = 1/3.

The correct option is A.

Write a paragraph proof.
worty [1.4K]
It is given that line segment BC is congruent to line segment EC and that line segment AC is congruent to DC. Because of the vertical angles theorem, angle BCA is equal to angle DCE. Therefore, triangles CBA AND DEC are congruent by SAS. Using CPCTC, BA is equal to ED.
