Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form k=\frac{y}{x} or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>

case 1) Sod that is quoted at a set price per square yard plus a labor fee

The Cost is NOT proportional to Area, because the line don't pass though the origin (the equation has an y-intercept equal to the labor fee)

case 2) Pavers that cost a set amount per square foot

The Cost is Proportional to Area

In this problem the constant of proportionality k is equal to the set amount per square feet

case 3) Hardwood flooring that cost $16 for every 2 square feet

The Cost is Proportional to Area

The constant of proportionality k is equal to

k=\frac{y}{x} ----> k=\frac{16}{2}=\$8\ per square\ foot

The linear equation is  y=8x

case 4) The given graph

Is a line that passes though the origin

so

The Cost is Proportional to Area

case 5) The given table

Find the constant of proportionality k for each ordered pair

If all values of k are the same, then the cost is proportional to area

For x=2, y=3,000 ->k=\frac{y}{x} --> k=\frac{3,000}{2}=1,500

For x=4, y=4,000 ->k=\frac{y}{x} --> k=\frac{4,000}{4}=1,000

For x=6, y=6,000 ->k=\frac{y}{x} --> k=\frac{6,000}{6}=1,000

so

the values of k are different

therefore

The Cost is NOT proportional to Area

case 6) A concrete patio quoted at a bulk cost for 50 square feet

What is the range of g(x) = - 2x + 3, if the domain is {-2, - 1,0, 1, 2}?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

{ - 1, 1, 7, 23 }

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the range substitute the values from the domain into g(x)

g(-2) = -2(- 2) + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7

g(- 10) = - 2(- 10) + 3 = 20 + 3 = 23

g(1) = - 2(1) + 3 = - 2 + 3 = 1

g(2) = - 2(2) + 3 = - 4 + 3 = - 1

Range is { - 1, 1, 7, 23 }

When both parties discuss the terms of a contract they are
marysya [2.9K]
B - Negotiating.

This is because they are communicating, they haven't yet agreed to anything or committed to the contract as neither parties have signed, thus leading to both C and D to be incorrect.

A, however, is not exactly a term used for this situation - contracting is more of a term used to say someone contracted a disease or the flu or etc. 

Therefore, B would be correct as they are indeed negotiating the terms of the contract.

Hope this helps!
