Y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

We need to find k as our first step.

35 = k140

35/140 = k

1/4 = k

We can now find y when x = 70.

y = kx

y = (1/4)(70)

y = 70/4

This fraction can be simplified or reduced more.

The number 2 is the GCF of 70 and 4.

70 ÷ 2 = 35

4 ÷ 2 = 2

Answer:

y = 35/2

What is the equation in point−slope form of the line passing through (1, 2) and (2, 5)?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope by using change in y divided by change in x.

Change in y = 5 - 2 = 3

Change in x = 2 - 1 = 1

This means that the slope is 3/1 = 3.

Then, you put it in the point-slope form so:

(y - 2) = 3(x - 1)

In the 1990s, the number of target stores increased from 420 stores to 914 stores. What was the percent increased in the number
tino4ka555 [31]
Divide 914/420, move the decimal over to the right two places and you'll get approximately 217.5%

EDIT: My mistake, read question wrong.
914-420 = 494
494/420 = 1.17
<u></u>117.62% 
Subtract the difference and divide by original number (: Move decimal place over two places.
