Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportional relationship is a relationship which crosses through the origin (0,0) and which has a proportional constant. We can determine this either by finding (0,0) where x=0 and y=0 in the table or by dividing y/x. None of the tables contain (0,0) so we will divide y by x. We are looking for a table which when each y is divided by its x we have the same constant appearing.
<u>Table A</u>

These fractions are not equal. This is not proportional.
<u>Table B</u>

These fractions are equal and each shows the numerator to be half of the denominator. This is proportional.
<u>Table C</u>

These fractions are not equal. This is not proportional.
<u>Table D</u>

These fractions are not equal. This is not proportional.
A(5) = 2 + 5^2 = 2 + 25 = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
This sequence is defined as a(n) = 2 + n^2.
Thus, a(1) = 2 + 1^2 = 2 + 1 = 3
Then a(5) = 2 + 5^2 = 2 + 25 = 27

43/100 - 223/100
(43x100)-(23x100)/100x100
-18000/100000
(-18000/2000)/(100000/2000)
= -9/5 or -1 4/5
