Given:
y is proportional to x.
y=10 and x=8.
To find:
The constant of proportionality and the equation for the proportional relationship.
Solution:
y is proportional to x.
...(i)
Where, k is the constant of proportionality.
Putting y=10 and x=8, we get
Putting 
in (i), we get
Therefore, the contestant of proportionality is and the equation for the proportional relationship is .
Answer:
90 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure's area is that of four right triangles, each with legs of 6 in and 7.5 in. The area of each triangle is half the product of the leg lengths, so is ...
triangle area = (1/2)(6 in)(7.5 in)
Then the area of 4 of those triangles is ...
figure area = 4 · triangle area = 2(6 in)(7.5 in) = 90 in²
So use cancelation
multiply first equation by 2
2x+8y=10
times 2
4x+16y=20
now add
4x+16y=20
<u>-4x-9y=-13 +
</u>0x+7y=7
7y=7
divide by 7
y=1
subsittue
2x+8y=10
2x+8(1)=10
2x+8=10
subtract 8 from both sides
2x=2
divide by 2
x=1
x=1
y=1
