Hello There =)
Commutative property is used. The commutative property <span>states that two numbers can be multiplied in either order.</span>
The last one, v = -2,000y + 20,000
Answer:
a) not proportional
b) proportional; k = 
Step-by-step explanation:
a) for any proportional equation, the line must pass through the origin. The equation in a) is y = 4x + 1, and the '+1' is the y-intercept. This means that the line does not pass through the origin, so x and y cannot increase by the same amount (i.e. they are not proportional).
Another way to determine this is is to use the y = kx base. If you have an equation that fits that it's likely proportional.
Here, if the equation was only y = 4x then it'd be proportional because u can see that k = 4. This is not the equation though, and the 4x + 1 doesn't fit to the y = kx formula so it can't be proportional.
b) straight away you can see that there's no 'c' term (y = mx + c) which means the y-intercept is 0, so the line passes through the origin. While this does not immediately mean the line is proportional, you can make sure that it is by checking it fits with the y = kx equation.
y = -(3/5)x fits with y = kx, with k being -3/5
Correct Question:
At a bake sale, plates of cookies, p, are sold for $5 each. The amount of money from the sale of cookies is expressed as dollars, d. Which equation represents the earnings of the bake sale?
1. p = 5d
2. d = p + 5
3. d = 5p
Answer:
3. d = 5p
Step-by-step explanation:
As one plate of cookies price is 5 $
The d is expressed as numbers of dollars which are earned.
Earnings = d = 5 x number of plates sold (p)
therefore
d = 5p
