The answer will be: Y = -2/5x - 4
Slope intercept form: y= Mx+b
You find the slope (M) using: rise/run formula
You find (b) by looking at the y-intercept
Answer: Table H would be the correct answer;
The rule of a function is that for each x-value given there can't be more than 1 y-value
<u>In Table F:</u>
x = -13, then y = -2
x = -13, then y = 0
x = -13, then y = 5
x = -13, then y = 7
For the x-value -13, there are 4 different y-values, so <em>it's not a function.</em>
<u>In Table G:</u>
x = -6, then y = 3
x = -1, then y = -1
x = -1, then y = 5
x = 10, then y = -9
For the x-value -1, there are 2 different y-values, hence <em>this isn't a function.</em>
<u>In Table H:</u>
x = 1, then y = 4
x = 3, then y = 4
x = 7, then y = 4
x = 12, then y = 4
For each x-value, there is only 1 y-value, so <em>this is a function.</em>
<u>In table J:</u>
x = -9, then y = -7
x = -2, then y = -5
x = 0, then y = 0
x = 0, then y = 6
For the x-value 0, there are 2 different y-value therefore <em>this isn't a function</em>
Hope this helps!
a constant of proportionality is a number you have to multiply x by to get y.
y=kx is the equation that expresses the proportionality of x and y
the constant of proportionality is k, so k=-5
