We are asked to determine the value of a such that the function f(x) = ax^2 + 5 is fit for the point given (-1,2). In this case, we substitute 2 to y and -1 to x. The result is then 2 = a*(-1)^2 + 5 ; 2 = a + 5; a is then equal to -3
No, they are not equivalent.
5(2x - y) = 10x - 5y and it is not equal to 15x - 5y.

Complete Question
Mr Sampson fills the family pool with water for the summer.After two hours,the water has reached a depth of 2.5 feet. After three hours,the water level has risen to 3 3/4 feet.If the relationship between time and water depth is proportional,what is the constant of proportionality?
Answer:
1.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Time is proportional to Depth
Hence:
T ∝ D
T = kD
Where k is the constant of proportionality
After two hours,the water has reached a depth of 2.5 feet. After three hours,the water level has risen to 3 3/4 feet.
Total number of hours now is 3 + 2 = 5 hours
5 = k × 3 3/4
5 = k × 3.75
k = 5/3.75
k = 1.33
63 is only 63% of the number 100.
