Answer:

Option C. y=(3/4)x

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

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

so

Find the value of the constant k

For the point (-8,-6)

k=y/x=(-6/-8)=3/4

For the point (12,9)

k=y/x=(9/12)=3/4

<u><em>Note</em></u> A single point was required to find the constant k (because the line passes through the origin)

The equation is equal to

y=(3/4)x

1-25. Given f(x) =- 2/3x +3 and g(x) = 2x2 - 5, complete parts (a) through (f).
Korolek [52]

Answer:

When f or g are equivalent to a number you are solving for x. For example b, d, e, f. In the equation g(x) =2x2-5 I assumed 2 was a typo. So, if it's incorrect, please use same steps and just adjust the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-\frac{2}{3x}+3

a) f(3)=-\frac{2}{2(3)} +3

           =-\frac{1}{3}+3 =\frac{-1+6}{3} =\frac{5}{3}

b) f(x)=-5

      -5=-\frac{2}{3x}+3

      -8=-\frac{2}{3x}

  -24x=-2

        x=\frac{1}{12}

g(x)=2x-5

c) g(-3)=2(-3)-5

               =-6-5

               =-11

d) g(x)=-7

      -7=2x-5

      -2=2x

        x=-1

e) g(x)=8

        8=2x-5

       12=2x

        x=6

f)  g(x)=9

         9=2x-5

        11=2x

         x=\frac{11}{2}
