B: the relationship is proportional
Answer=7:13
Kenny's Weight*6/7=Melvin's Weight
So, for example, if Melvin's weigh was 7...
Kenny's Weight*6/7=7
divide both sides by 6/7
Kenny Weight=6
So we can say that Melvin's weight to Kenny's weight is 7:6
The boys total weights would be...
7+6=13
So Melvin's weight over the total weight of the two boys is:
7:13
Answer:
y=1/2x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
(- 2, - 3) is a solution to the given system of equations.
Answer: Option D
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given equation are not presented in proper format. So, let assume the given system of are as below,
2 x - y = -1
2 x -4 y = 8
Now, subtract the second equation from the first, we get
(2 x - y) -(2 x - 4 y) = -1 -8
3 y = -9
y = -3 (obtained this when divide by 3)
Substituting y = - 3 into the first equation, we get
2 x - (-3) = - 1
2 x = - 1 + 3
x = - 2 (obtained when divide by 2)
Now, the answer is (x, y) = (- 2, - 3)
