Answer:

K=13,5

y=13,5x, x=numbers of hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the  proporcionality constant, divide the number of milles traveled in given time.

K=54/4=67,5/5=81/6=13.5 and the equation that describes the relationship is y=13,5x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of proportionality (known as "speed" in this case) is 12.5 miles per hour. 

d= 12.5 x t 

To find the constant of proportionality, divide one value in each pair by the other. If this relationship is a true direct proportionality , when you repeat these for every pair, your will come up with the same value:

For example

25miles÷2hours=12.5mileshour

A direct proportionality will always result in an equation that resembles this:

y=kx

where y and x are the related quantities and k is the constant of proportionality. If you draw a graph using the values you have, the graph will show a straight line the passes through the origin. The slope of this line will be the constant of proportionality. (And if the values given are real physical quantities, this constant will contain important information about the situation you are studying!)

Suppose a set of data about the spread (in hundreds of acres) of a food-borne bacteria (after t weeks) in lettuce has the follow
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

A sinusoidal model would be used

The kind of function that have consistency in the periodic rate of change is the Average rate of changes

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of model that would be used is sinusoidal model and this is because there is periodic change in the values given ( i.e the rate of changes given )

For percentage rate of changes :

starting from 0.9% there is an increase to 1.3% then a decrease to 1.1% and a further decrease to 1% before an increase to 1.3% and another decrease to 1%

For Average rate of changes:

starting from 2.9 there is a decrease to 2.4, then an increase to 3.7 and another decrease to 3.1 followed by an increase to 3.6 and a decrease back to 3.2

This relation ( sinusoidal model ) is best suited for a linear model because there is a periodic rate of change in the functions

The kind of function that have consistency in the period rate of change is the Average rate of changes
