Which equation represents a proportional relationship?
2 answers:
y = 3 x equation represents a proportional relationship.
Answer: Option B
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
A proportional variation represents a relationship between two variables x and y. It can be expressed in the form y=k x. Here, the ‘k’, the proportionality constant is equal to the slope m and the line goes through the origin
case A)
A linear equation that not passes through the origin and so not proportional variation
case B) y= 3 x
Is a linear equation but passes through the origin and so proportional variation
case C) y = - 3x+2
A linear equation that not passes through the origin and so not proportional variation
case D)
An inverse variation equation but not passes through the origin and so not proportional variation.
From these, equation option B is the proportion equation because in these equations, there is no addition and subtraction of any constant number. That’s why both these equations become proportional equations.

Step-by-step explanation:
If the parabola has the form
(vertex form)
then its vertex is located at the point (h, k). Therefore, the vertex of the parabola
is located at the point (8, 6).
To find the length of the parabola's latus rectum, we need to find its focal length <em>f</em>. Luckily, since our equation is in vertex form, we can easily find from the focus (or focal point) coordinate, which is
where is called the focal length or distance of the focus from the vertex. So from our equation, we can see that the focal length <em>f</em> is
By definition, the length of the latus rectum is four times the focal length so therefore, its value is
