Answer:

As few as just over 345 minutes (23×15) or as many as just under 375 minutes (25×15).

Imagine a simpler problem: the bell has rung just two times since Ms. Johnson went into her office. How long has Ms. Johnson been in her office? It could be almost as short as just 15 minutes (1×15), if Ms. Johnson went into her office just before the bell rang the first time, and the bell has just rung again for the second time.

Or it could be almost as long as 45 minutes (3×15), if Ms. Johnson went into her office just after the bells rang, and then 15 minutes later the bells rang for the first time, and then 15 minutes after that the bells rang for the second time, and now it’s been 15 minutes after that.

So if the bells have run two times since Ms. Johnson went into her office, she could have been there between 15 minutes and 45 minutes. The same logic applies to the case where the bells have rung 24 times—it could have been any duration between 345 and 375 minutes since the moment we started paying attention to the bells!

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 2

The equation is y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit price or unit rate is $2

Let y represent the price of tomatoes, then the price of x tomatoes is

y=2x dollars.

This represents a direct variation.

This equation is of the form y=kx, where k=2 is the constant of proportionality.

Please answer the correct answer I will give brainliest. Use the graph to write a linear function that relates y to x. y=
Mumz [18]

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the slope. We do so by choosing any two points and dividing the change in the y-coordinates (their difference) by the change in the x-coordinates (their difference). Let's just choose (1, 3) and (0, 3). The slope is:  . So, the slope is 0.

We want to write a line in slope-intercept form, which is: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). Here, the slope m = 0. Looking at the graph, we see that the y-intercept is (0, 3), so b = 3. Then, our line is: y = 0x + 3  ⇒  y = 3.

Another note is that this is a horizontal line. One thing to remember is that all horizontal lines have slopes of 0, so their function is simply y = k, where k is a constant through which the line cuts through.
