Answer:
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 or
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
Let
x -----> the number of hours worked
y ----> the amount paid in dollars
In this problem we have a proportional variation, between two variables, x, and y
<em>Find out the constant of proportionality k</em>
For (5,300) -----> ---->
For (4,240) -----> ---->
For (6,360) -----> ---->
The constant k is
The equation is equal to
The unit rate of change of dollars with respect to time is equal to the constant of proportionality or slope of the linear equation
therefore
We will put ur equation in y = mx + b form, and the slope will be in the m position.
14x + 7y = -9
7y = -14x - 9
y = (-14/7)x - 9/7
y = -2x - 9/7
y = mx + b
y = -2x + (-9/7)....as u can see, the -2 is in the m position and is therefore the slope.

B 3/7 because 15 divided by 5 = 3 and 35 divided by 5 = 7
(5,-3) (-1,6)
y=mx+b
calculate m:
(-3-6)/(5-(-1)
=-9/6=-1.5
y=-1.5x+b
insert the (5, -3) point to calculate b:
-3=-1.5*5+b
-3=-7.5+b
4.5=b
b=the y intercept, so the line intercepts x=0 at y=4.5
