Answer:
If two variables are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable. If they are inversely proportional, an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding decrease in the other variable.
Looking at the given values, as x is increasing, y is also increasing. The constant of proportionality is
9/3 = 27/9 = 3
Therefore, the relationship is a direct variation and the function to model it is
y = 3x
Step-by-step explanation:
Say x = 12 and y = 4
12 - 4 = 8
Number 1
2(12) - 4(4) = 8
24 - 16 = 8
Number 1 is your Answer
Okay I am going to explain to you and show you how to get the correct answer.
Fist you need to find the Greatest common factor which is 45 because 5×9=45
8/9=40/45
+3/5=27/45
__________
67/45 is reduced to 1 22/45
5 goes into 45 9 times so 3 times 7 equals 27 and 9 goes into 45 5 times so 8 times 5 equals 40 you add both numbers up and get 67. 67 can't go into 45 so you subtract 67 from 45. 45 goes into 67 1 time so that is your whole the number. 22 is left over so that is your numerator. The denominator remains the same.
Answer:
y = (-1/5)x + 23/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Two points;
(-2,5) and (3,4)
Find:
Equation of slope
Computation:
y = mx + b
5 = m(-2) + b
5 = -2m + b .......... Eq1
4 = m(3) + b
4 = 3m + b .......... Eq2
Eq2 - Eq1
-1 = 5m
m = -1/5
5 = -2m + b
5 = -2(-1/5) + b
5 = 2/5 + b
b = 23/5
y = mx + b
y = (-1/5)x + 23/5
