Pounds: 10  20  30
Kilos:      4.5   9  13.5

half of 20 is 10, and half of 9 is 4.5.  So every 10 pounds is 4.5 kilos.  Add 10 to 20 to get 30, and add 4.5 to 9 to get 13.5.  Both parts of the ratio table are increasing at the same rate (either 10 eachtime or 4.5 each time).

For this case we have the following conversion:

20 pounds = 9 kilograms

To use the table what we must do is find another relationship that allows us to find the weight in kilograms for 30 pounds.

For example, half the weight in pounds is half the weight in kilograms.

Therefore, the given conversion is:

10 pounds = 4.5 kilograms

So, for 30 pounds, we multiply this last ratio obtained by three on both sides:

30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms

Then, the table is:

Pounds 10 20 30

kilograms 4.5 9 13.5

Answer:

Using the ratio table the dogs weight is:

30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms

How to find the point-slope form for the slope of 6 and passing through(-7,1)​
MariettaO [177]

Answer: y-1=6(x+7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for point-slope form is y-y_1=m(x-x_1). Since we are given the point and slope, we can directly plug them in.

y-1=6(x-(-7))            [distribute by -1]

y-1=6(x+7)

Now, we know that the point-slope form is y-1=6(x+7).
