Answer:

In the first half, they scored 9 points.

in the second half, they scored:

-3 + 2*9 = 18 - 3 = 15 points.

The total number of points scored is 9 + 15 = 24 points.

Now we want to know:

"What is the ratio of the points scored in the second half to the total number of points scored?"

The ratio between two numbers a and b is written as:

a:b

In this case, the ratio will be:

15:24

But we should simplify this ratio, we can divide both sides by the same number and the ratio will remain unchanged.

As both numbers are multiples of 3, we can divide both sides by 3.

15/3 = 5.

24/3 = 8

Then:

15:24 = 5:8

The ratio is 5:8

Naily [24]

the constant of variation or namely its slope will be

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{18})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{30}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{30-18}{5-3}\implies \cfrac{12}{2}\implies 6
