As written here, both choices B and C represent proportional relationships:

... B. y = 12x

... C. y = 3x

_____

One key to a proportional relationship is that when one variable is zero, so is the other. This will not be the case for selections A and D.

Answer:

$y=12x$

$y=3x$

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 $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope of the line m, and the line passes trough the origin

case A) $y=-3x+2$

Is a linear equation but does not passes trough the origin

case B) $y=12x$

Is a linear equation and passes trough the origin-----> represent a proportional relationship

case C) $y=3x$

Is a linear equation and passes trough the origin-----> represent a proportional relationship

case D) $y=2(x+13)$

Is a linear equation but does not passes trough the origin

HELP ME WITH MY MATH ASSIGNMENT, WILL GIVE ANYTHING, DUE TOMORROW! :(

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Answer is 225.

We have to find the sum of 15 terms of the series

sigma 1 to 15 (2n-1)

This can be split as per summation terms as

sigma 2n - sigma 1

sigma 2n can again be simplified by taking 2 outside

sigma 2n= 2 times sum of natural numbers of 1 to 15

= 2(15)(16)/2= 240

sigma 1= 1+1+...15 times= 15

Hence final answer is

= 2 times sigma n - (n) = 240-15 = 225.

What is the overtime rate for lifeguard who regularly earns $8.75 per hour?

TEA [102]

The overtime rate is an added percentage to the regular rate. By how much percentage, this would depend on the place you're working. If your work in USA, under US federal labor and tax law, the rate would be 150%. Thus, the overtime rate would then be:

Overtime rate = $8.75/hour * 1.50 = $13.125/hour

Draw a line for the axis of symmetry of function f. Also mark the x-intercept(s), y-intercept, and vertex of the function. f(x)

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Part A: vertex at (-1,4)

Part B: line of symmetry x =-1

Part C: x-intercept x = -3 and x = 1

Part D: y-intercept y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) = - (x+1)² + 4

The given equation represents a parabola.

The general equation of the parabola with a vertex at (h,k)

f(x) = (x-h)² + k

Part A: To find the vertex, compare the general equation with the given function.

So, the vertex of the function will be at (-1,4)

Part B: the line for the axis of symmetry of function will be at x =-1

Part C: To find x-intercept, put y = 0

So, - (x+1)² + 4 = 0

- (x+1)² = -4

(x+1)² = 4

x + 1 = ±√4 = ±2

x + 1 = 2 OR x + 1 = -2

x = 1 OR x =-3

x-intercept at x = 1 and x = -3

Part D:To find y-intercept, put x = 0

So, y = - (0+1)² + 4 = -1 + 4 = 3

y-intercept at y = 3

See the attached figure.
