Lets say we have a rectangle. if the ratio is 7:5, we can put the width as 7x, and the length as 5x (or vice versa, it doesn't really matter.) If the perimeter is solved by 2(h+w), we have 2(7x+5x)=96, or 2(7x)+2(5x)=96, which is C

Which equation(s) represents a proportional relationship?
enyata [817]

Answer:

A and C are proportional relationships.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that a "proportional relationship" has no constant term.  Thus, we eliminate Answers B and D immediately.

Answer A represents a proportional relationship:  y varies directly with the square of x.

Answer C also represents a proportional relationship:  y varies directly with x.

Find all the points, if any, where the graph of 12x-5y=0 intersects (x+12)^2+(y-5)^2=169.
WITCHER [35]
I: 12x-5y=0
II:(x+12)^2+(y-5)^2=169

with I:
12x=5y
x=(5/12)y
-> substitute x in II:
((5/12)y+12)^2+(y-5)^2=169
(25/144)y^2+10y+144+y^2-10y+25=169
(25/144)y^2+y^2+10y-10y+144+25=169
(25/144)y^2+y^2+144+25=169
(25/144)y^2+y^2+169=169
(25/144)y^2+y^2=0
y^2=0
y=0

insert into I:
12x=0
x=0

-> only intersection is at (0,0) = option B

How can the order of operations be used to simplify expressions?
Lapatulllka [165]
Order of Operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction), can help to simplify an equation by guiding you through the steps to solve it.

This is because it tells you to solve the parentheses. If there is none, but you've already done this, you solve for exponents, etc. 

The progressive soling of the equation not only makes it physically shorter, but also brings you closer to the answer.

Hope this helps, and I was the brainliest! :)

So sorry to ask another question but I need some help-
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

14x + 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of three sides of a triangle are 5x + 9 feet, 2x + 14 feet, and 7x feet.

The perimeter of a triangle: the sum of all of its sides.

5x + 9 + 2x + 14 + 7x

14x + 23

It's the expression of the perimeter of the triangle. Once you will be asked to find x, you'll probably be given the exact perimeter of the triangle.
