Using simultaneous equation,
a=-1, b=1, x=1, y=0
OR
a=1, b=-1, x=1, y=0.
The answer would be A. Hope this helped! :)
Answer:
9. 
10. 
Step-by-step explanation:
9. Given the sequence

In this sequence,

Note that

then the common difference in this sequence is 
You have

then the explicit formula is

10. Given the sequence

In this sequence,

Note that

then the common difference in this sequence is 
You have

then the recursive formula is

For an equation to be proportional, it must have no y intercept, and it must have a slope. So,
<span>y=4x+4 This equation isn't proportional because it has a y-intercept (+4)
y=4x+2 </span>This equation isn't proportional because it has a y-intercept (+2)
y=4x This equation is proportional because it has no y-intercept, and a slope.
