Put the value of x to the inequality:

Direct variation means that changes in x will result to changes in y. If x increase, y also increases and vice versa.
y = kx
k = y / x
y = 45 ; x = 40
k = 45/40
k = 1.125
y = 1.125x
y will increase by 1.125 interval of x.
I dont know the first answer but the 2nd is dad
Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
2a - b : 2a + b = 1 : 2
2a - b = 1
- Elimination
2a + b = 2
-b - (b) = -1
-2b = -1
b = 0.5
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2a + b = 2 Substitution
2a + 0.5 = 2
2a = 1.5
a = 0.75
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a:b
0.75 : 0.5
or
3/4 : 1/2
Hope this helps!!!
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:



(segment addition postulate)
(substitution)
Solve for x
Collect like terms
Divide both sides by -1

Plug in the value of x
