Answer:
y = -3x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The hypotenuse is on the same line as BC but twice as long. So extend that line up and it will cross the y axis at (0,9). 9 will be your y intercept.
To find the slope start at C and count up 9 and to the left 3 to get to B.
So the slope is rise/run or 9/(-3) = -3.
Final equation would be y = -3x + 9
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
the initial statement is
y
∝
1
/x
to convert to an equation multiply by k the constant
of variation
y
=
k
×
1
/x
=
k
/x
to find k use the given condition
y
=
5 when x
=
6
y
=
k/
x
⇒
k
=

when
x
=
10
then
y

Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Well if the straight line is equal to 1 then your answer is 2/3 but if the straight line is not equal to 1 you need to know what it is equal to or you could use the equation y = (2/3)x
"x" would be the length of the straight line and "y" would be two-thirds of it
Answer: The new ratio will be 1/4
Explanation: The initial ratio of losses to wins is 3 to 2. If we sum the numer of losses and wins 3 + 2 = 5 games, that means they loss 3 out of 5 games , and they win 2 out of 5 games.
So if they had won twice as many of the games, that is 2*2=4. And since the number of games is the same ( 5 ), then they would have won 4 games and loss only 1.
So the new ratio of losses to wins will be 1 to 4, or expressed in a fraction: 1/4
