Converting to inches we have
\\  \frac{65}{13} =  \frac{x}{121 \times 12} \: or \\  \frac{65}{13} =  \frac{x}{1452} \: so \\ (65)(1452) = 13x \: so \\ x =  \frac{(65)(1452)}{13} = 7260 \: inches \\  =  \frac{7260}{12} = 65feet \\ as \: the \: height \: of \: the \: space \: needle

Which ordered pair would form a proportional retationship with the points in the graph?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

(9, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

the given points are

(3, 2)

(6, 4)

so, can you see, how the sequence continues ?

I see immediately that for every 3 additional units of x we add 2 units of y.

so, yes, the next point in the sequence is

(6 + 3, 4 + 2) = (9, 6).

so, this point (or ordered pair) follows the same ratio or proportional relationship between x and y as the points already in the graph.

in other words, they are on the same line following the same slope ("y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point on the line to another).

anastassius [24]
To get the amount you need to subtract from 840, just turn 5% into a decimal, which is 0.05, then just multiply 0.05 by 840 and subtract that number from 840
