What are two quantities In a proportional relationship AND what is a proportional relationship?

Answer:

Do you have a friend that can affect your mood? Whenever she's up, you're up. When she's down, you're down. A proportional relationship between quantities is a lot like that. For example, imagine a beehive that has a lot of bees in it. Each of those bees has six legs. If I take away half the bees, there will only be half as many legs left in the hive as well. There is a proportional relationship between the number of bees and the number of bee legs in that hive.

A proportional relationship exists between two values x and y when they can be expressed in the general form y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Our beehive example could be represented by y = 6x, where x is the number of bees, y is the number of legs, and k is 6 (since each bee has 6 legs). If I double x, then y will also double, and if I divide y by x, then y/x should always be 6.

Another way to say that is if two values are proportional, then dividing them by each other will always produce the same ratio. This ratio will be the constant k, which can be expressed as a fraction or a decimal.

I hope this helps :)!

How did the battle in the Atlantic end between the Allies and Nazis?
meriva

The Battle of the Atlantic took place throughout the northern region of the Atlantic Ocean. Once the United States entered the war the battle spread all the way to the coast the United States and the Caribbean Sea.  The battle lasted over 5 years and 8 months from September 3, 1939 to May 8, 1945. The control of the Atlantic had a major impact on the outcome of the war. Keeping Britain supplied helped to keep the Germans from taking over all of Western Europe. The losses in the battle were staggering. Over 30,000 sailors were killed on each side. The Allies lost around 3,500 supply ships and 175 warships. The Germans lost 783 submarines.

Fun Facts:

Winston Churchill first called it the "Battle of the Atlantic" in 1941.

It was estimated that at least 20 supply ships needed to arrive each day in Britain in order for them to continue to fight the war.

The Allies lost 1,664 supply ships in 1942.

The Germans sometimes used a "wolf pack" tactic where a number of submarines would surround and attack a supply convoy at once.

Allied planes used a large spotlight called the Leigh Light to spot submarines that had surfaced at night.

ahrayia [7]

The depth of a soil profile is dependent on the type of parent material. the more easily weathered the parent material, the deeper the soil profile. select one: True.

“Soil profile is defined as the vertical section of the soil from the ground surface downwards to where the soil meets the underlying rock.”

  • The soil is the topmost layer of the earth’s crust mainly composed of organic minerals and rock particles that support life. A soil profile is a vertical cross-section of the soil, made of layers running parallel to the surface. These layers are known as soil horizons.
  • Soil profile helps in determining the role of the soil as well. It helps one to differentiate the given sample of soil from other soil samples based on factors like its colour, texture, structure, and thickness, as well as its chemical composition.
  • here The parent material of a soil determines the original supply of those nutrient elements that are released by physical and chemical weathering and influences the balance between nutrient loss and retention. Organic acids and exudates produced by microorganisms and plants enhance the weathering of minerals and the release of nutrients.

marishachu [46]
The correct answer is C. Guilds likely became less powerful as artisans were replaced by machinery. During the Industrial revolution mass production allowed businesses to produce larger quantities using less capital. They needed less workers when they began incorporating machines that could not only produce more products quicker, but could also produce them uniformly. This meant that fewer artisans would have been needed to make certain products.
