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.

In a basketball game, a regular basket was worth 2 points and a long-distance basket was worth 3 points. if there were 45 basket
IgorLugansk [536]
Let
 x: number of regular basketball
 y: number of long-distance basket
 We have the following system of equations:
 2x + 3y = 96
 x + y = 45
 Solving the system we have
 y = 45-x
 2x + 3 (45-x) = 96
 2x +135 -3x = 96
 -x = 96 -135
 x = 39
 Then,
 y = 45-x
 y = 45-39
 y = 6
 answer
 were made
 regular baskets = 39
 long-distance baskets = 6

The figure shows a triangle with an angle bisector. If angle SUT= 34°, find the measurement of angle 1?
Burka [1]

The ANGLE BISECTOR mentioned in the problem is simply just a line that separates an angle in half.

Meaning if it bisects ∠SUT which is 34. It just means that it divides the angle 34 into 2 equal parts.

Therefore ∠1 is just one-half of the ∠SUT.

\begin{gathered} m\angle1=\frac{\angle SUT}{2} \\ m\angle1=\frac{34}{2} \\ m\angle1=17 \end{gathered}

Therefore the measurement of ∠1 is 17°.
