Why does.the equation y=3x+5 NOT represent a proportional relationship

Answer:

The equation not represent a proportional relationship because the line don't passes through the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem we have

$y=3x+5$

This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form

where

the slope is m=5

the y-intercept is b=5

Remember that in a proportional relationship the value of b must be equal to zero (because the line passes through the origin)

therefore

The equation not represent a proportional relationship because the line don't passes through the origin

Why might you want to use the commutative property to change the order of the integers in the following sum before adding

liq [111]

Commutative Property of basic numbers is a property in which you can move around or move the order of the numbers yet still get the same sum or product. This property only applies to the addition and multiplication operations. In which why you might want to consider the commutative property? Well, first thing is that you get the idea that for example, 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 that if you change the order or move around the numbers like 3 + 2 + 1 = 6, you still got the sum. And next is because if will be help for more complex equations like combined operations in a single equation. 1 + 3 – 4 x 6 / 2 = 8 ; 3 + 1 – 6 x 4 / 2 = 8

In a class of 24 people, the ratio of women to men is 3 to 1. How many women are in the class?

ryzh [129]

Answer:

There are 18 women in the class

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all this is a ratio topic and to solve it one needs to know that ratios are fractions so to solve it we will find first the sum of the fractions which is 3+1 and =4. Fully recognising through the question that the fractions or relation of the women to the men in the classroom is in a 3:1 ratio, we should multiply the fraction with the total number of people in the class which bring forth the result as 18!
