No, because 5/8=15/24 and 15/24≠15/40

15/40 = 5/8
cross multiply
(15)(8) = (40)(5)
120 = 200...incorrect...so it is not a true proportion

little tip : proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions...15/40 is not equivalent to 5/8.....now if it would have been 15/40 = 3/8 , since these are equivalent fractions, this would have been a true proportion

Select the correct answer. The graph of function f is shown. An exponential function passes through (minus 4, 9), (0, 1), (1, 0)
aksik [14]

The answer choice which correctly draws a comparison between the end behaviours of the functions is; Choice C; They have the same end behavior as x approaches -∞ and same end behavior as x approaches ∞.

<h3>Which answer choice correctly compares the end behaviour of the functions?</h3>

As given in the task content; the graph of the exponential function passes through (-4, 9), (0, 1), (1, 0), and (5, -2).

It therefore follows that as; x reduces (approaches -∞), the y value increases.

And, as x -increases (approaches +∞), the y-value decreases.

For the table, the values can be written as coordinates as follows; (-1,2), (0,4), (1,6), (2, 0), (3,-2).

Consequently, as x reduces (approaches -∞), the y- values decrease.

And, as x increases (approaches +∞), the y-values decrease.

Ultimately, the two functions in discuss can be concluded to have; Choice C.

Use addition or substitution to find the value of y for this set of equations. 4x + 13y = 40 4x + 3y = -40
Aliun [14]
4x + 13y = 40
4x + 3y = -40

multiply second equation by -1

4x + 13y = 40
-4x - 3y = 40

add equations together

10y = 80
y = 8

put y in either original equation

4x + 3(8) = -40
4x + 24 = -40

subtract 24 from both sides

4x = 64

x=16
y=8
