The values of x and y are proportional. Determine the constant of proportionality(k)

<h3>The constant of proportionality is k = 5</h3>

For direct proportion equations, you divide the y value over its corresponding x value to get the value of k.

For example, the point (x,y) = (2,10) is on the diagonal line. So k = y/x = 10/2 = 5.

Another example: the point (x,y) = (6, 30) is also on the same diagonal line, so k = y/x = 30/6 = 5 is the same result as before.

You can use any point on the diagonal line as long as it is not (0,0). This is because division by zero is not allowed.

side note: the direct proportion equation y = k*x becomes y = 5*x which is the graph of that diagonal line. The slope is m = 5, the y intercept is b = 0. All direct proportion graphs go through the origin as shown in the diagram.

a line with the slope of -5 passes through the points (-3, -5) and (-4, teat parentheses. What is the value of t​
Setler79 [48]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope using the slope formula

m = (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1).

Then use the point slope formula,

Y - Y1 = m(X - X1), with one of the given

points and the slope. Also, solve for y.

Use Y - Y1 = m(X - X1)

Also, solve for y.

Find the slope of the given line, m, by rewriting the given equation in y = mx + b. Flip and change the sign on the given slope to find the new slope.

Use Y - Y1 = m(X - X1)

Plug in the given point and new slope

and solve for y.

Plot points or graph line. Move a vertical line across the graph. If the line touches more than once then it is not a function.

Domain = { x-values, ... }

Range = { y-values, ... }

List the elements in increasing order and don't repeat.

For this class, the domain is all real numbers unless you have an x in the denominator of a fraction.

When x is in the denominator, set the denominator equal to zero and solve. Everything on a number line works except the value(s) you got when solving.

Answer: (- infinity, #) u (#, infinity)

Parentheses everywhere b/c the number # does not work in the equation.

Domain: Squish the graph to the x-axis. Write shaded part in interval notation (left, right)

Range: Squish the graph to the y-axis. Write shaded part in interval notation (down, up)

Brackets include points, parentheses don't. Infinities always get parentheses.

Write both equations in the style y = mx + b.

Look at the slopes, m, to answer the question.

If the slopes are the same, then they are parallel.

If the slopes are negative reciprocals, then they are perpendicular. Otherwise, neither.

If you have an equal to under the inequality, then you have a solid boundary line. If you don't have an equal to under the inequality, then you have a dotted boundary line.

After you have graphed the boundary line and determined if it is solid or dotted, find a test point on either side of the boundary line. Substitute the ordered pair into the original inequality. If it simplifies down to a true statement, shade the region where that point is. If it is false, shade the region that does not contain that point.

If a TV cost $3960.00 and toes on sale during the following week with a 25% discount, what will be the total cost of the TV? but
Free_Kalibri [48]

we have the price of TV is $3960.if we round off to the nearest tens we get same 3960 because we have 0 at the end which means lesser than 5 so 60 will be the nearest ten.

discount =\frac{25}{100} *3960=990

so $990 will be the discount.

and the cost of TV after discount is 3960-990=$2970

HELP ME PLSSSSSS!!!!
katovenus [111]

Answer:

the answer you have chosen is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be written as a simplified fraction, and or is a recurring or finite decimal. That is the only number that can be properly written according to the rules I just stated.
