Answer:
The equation y = 3x shows a proportional relationship between x and y
Step-by-step explanation:
- <em>The proportional relationship is represented graphically by a line passes through the </em><em>origin point </em>
- <em>The equation of the proportional relationship is </em><em>y = m x</em>
Let us solve the question
Substitute x by 0 to find the value of y, if y = 0, then the line represents this equation passes through the origin point, then the equation shows a proportional relationship
∵ y = 3x
∵ x = 0
∴ y = 3(0)
∴ y = 0
→ That means the line that represents the equation passes through
the origin point
∴ The equation y = 3x shows a proportional relationship between x and y
Answer: the system of equations that represents this situation are
12x + 6y = 180
x = 2y
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of hardcover books that were sold in a day.
Let y represent the number of paperback books that were sold in a day.
The discount bookstore sells hardcover books for $12 and paperback books for $6. The total sales that day were $180. It means that
12x + 6y = 180
The number of hardcover books sold that day was twice the number of paperback books. It means that
x = 2y
I think the answer is B. because it says "waste of time"
