Which equation could you use to solve for x in the proportion 4/5=9/x ?

Mathematics

7 0

\frac{9}{x}  =  \frac{4}{5}
dividing both sides by 9
\frac{1}{x}  =  \frac{4}{5  \times 9}
rasing both sides to the power of -1
x =  \frac{5 \times 9}{4}  =  \frac{45}{4}

What is the equation of this line?<br> Please Help <br><br> Y=4x<br> Y=-1/4x<br> Y=-4x<br> Y=1/4x
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: Y=-1/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

A good way to find an equation of a line is to look for the slope. An obvious spot on this line would be when it crosses (0,0), and another one to the right would be when it crosses at (4,-1).

The slope is rise over run, or if we use the two points we found, "rise" would be -1, because it's dropping 1 unit when going from (0,0) to (4,-1), and the "run" would be 4, because it moves to the right 4 from (0,0) to (4,-1).

Putting these two values together we get:

m (slope) = rise / run

m = -1 / 4

Out of all the equations we're given, we can look for the one with a slope of -1/4, which is given to us:

y = (-1/4)x
