In a proportional relationship, x and y will increase at the same rate. In order to find the value of x when y=4, we first have to find the ratio of x:y. We can do this by creating a fraction. After we know the ratio, simply replace the y value with 4 and solve for x. Here's the math:

y=15 when x=3       given values

y/x = 15/3 = 5          ratio of y to x

y=5x                        equation representing the proportional relationship 

4=5x                        replace y with 4

4/5=x                       divide both sides by 5 to isolate x

Answer: The value of x=4/5 when y=4.

Hope this helps!

What is the Median for the following set of numbers? ​21 23 76 47 55 135 45 30 17
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Median = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data set:

21, 23, 76, 47, 55, 135, 45, 30, 17

Median is the number that divides the data into two equal parts.

Formula:

Median:\\\text{If n is odd, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{n+1}{2}th ~term \\\\\text{If n is even, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{\frac{n}{2}th~term + (\frac{n}{2}+1)th~term}{2}

Sorted data:

17, 21, 23, 30, 45, 47, 55, 76, 135

Sample size = 9, which is odd

Median =

\dfrac{9+1}{2}^{th}\text{ term} = \dfrac{10}{2}^{th}\text{ term} = 5^{th}\text{ term}\\\\= 45

The median of given set of numbers is 45.
