So,

Proportion basically means, that something is proportional

Example: A rope's length and weight are in proportion.

It's in proportion because the longer the rope, the more the weight

so, let's say

A popcorn machine costs 20 an hour

And in order to rent one, you have to pay $32 dollars

So you pay 32 for the machine, then 20 for every hour you use it

the number of hours used WOULD be proportional to the cost because

the more hours used, the more the cost

your final answer: YES it is proportional

Show all your work to receive full credit for this problem. Solve the system of equations using the elimination method. 2a + 3b
Sindrei [870]

Given equations are;<span>
2a + 3b = -1   ..................equation 1
3a + 5b = -2  ....................equation 2</span>

Now multiply equation 1 with (-3)

The equation will be;

-6a -9b = 3 …………………..equation 3

Now multiply equation 2 with (2)

The equation will be;

6a + 10b = -4 ……………..equation 4

Now add equation 3 and equation 4

-6a – 9b = 3

<span>6a  + 10b = -4</span>

<span>------------------------------</span>

0a + b = -1

b = -1

Now put the value of b in equation 1

2a + 3(-1) = -1

2a -3 = -1

2a = -1+3

2a = 2

a=1

Thus the solution is (a,b) = (1,-1)

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-2 1) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x-2y=8 ?
monitta
4x-2y=8 ==> y=2x-4 (to better show you what I mean) 

2 lines are parallel if they have the same slope (m the coefficient of x).

So y=mx + b // y =2x-4 means m=2 & y=mx + b, becomes y=2x + b.
Moreover they are telling us that this function passes by (-2,1), where -2 represents x & 1, represents y. To calculate b , replace x & y by their values:
y=2x+b ==> 1 = 2(- 2) + b==> 1 = -4 + b ==> b= 5. Finally the equation is
y=-2x+5

Can someone pleaseeee answer these.its urgent
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

1) Rolling a 3 is unlikely and rolling a 4 is unlikely too.

2) The probability of niki drawing a green marble is likely and the probability of tom drawing a blue marble is unlikely.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since there is only one 3 out of 6 numbers, the probability of that outcome is 1/6, which is low. The same thing goes for throwing a 4.

2) The reason why it is equally likely for niki drawing a green is because there are more green marbles than the other marbles. You could see it as a fraction as well, which is 4/9 Which is very close to one half (4.5). For tom, there are less blue marbles which brings it down to the unlikely spot (fraction = 3/9)

Hopefully this helps, and hopefully it isn't too confusing.

Find the area of the region that lies inside the first curve and outside the second curve. r = 6 − 6 sin θ, r = 6
yan [13]
Each curve completes one loop over the interval 0\le t\le2\pi. Find the intersections of the curves within this interval.

6-6\sin\theta=6\implies 1-\sin\theta=1\implies \sin\theta=0\implies \theta=0,\theta=\pi

The region of interest has an area given by the double integral

\displaystyle\int_\pi^{2\pi}\int_6^{6-6\sin\theta}r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta

equivalent to the single integral

\displaystyle\frac12\int_\pi^{2\pi}\bigg((6-6\sin\theta)^2-6^2\bigg)\,\mathrm d\theta

which evaluates to 9\pi+72.
