Start with the parentheses
If you are working with time or days, you can't put in a negative value because if you are doing an experiment, you can't go back in time to do that experiment to gather data. (Time for the most part considered to be an input value so that's why I used it as an example.)

Answer:
r = 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, solve the equation for r:
y = rx
y/x = r . . . . . . . divide by x
__
Since r is a constant, it will be the same for any corresponding pairs of x and y. It is convenient to choose both x and y as integers, as in the third table entry.
r = y/x = 5/45
r = 1/9 . . . . . . . . . reduced fraction
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
It is not a bad idea to check to see that this works with other values of x and y. For the first line of the table, we have x = 11:
y = rx = (1/9)(11) = 11/9 = 1 2/9 . . . . matches the table value
Answer:
6.24
Step-by-step explanation:
A= 18.42g, B = 5.8g,C = 0.75g
Total = 18.42 + 5.8 + 0.75
= 24.97g
Then divided into four equal parts
= 24.97g/4
= 6.2425g
= 6.24g
