When two variables are proportionate, they increase and decrease at the same ratio.
36 / 40 = 0.9
0.9 * 140 = 126
When y = 140, x = 126.
2. 150 / 30 = 5
5 * 48 = 240lbs
A person who weighs 48 lbs on the moon weighs 240lbs on Earth.
3. 110 / 66 = 0.6
0.6 * 80 = 48
y = 48 when x = 80

Answer:2/3 and 2:3
Explanation
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
(5x^3+4x^2)−(6x^2−2x−9)
To find the opposite of 6x^2−2x−9 find the opposite of each term.
5x^3+4x^2−6x^2+2x+9
Combine 4x^2 and 6x^2 to get −2x^2.
5x^3-2x^2+2x+9
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = -7, x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
We presume your equation is ...
x² -2x -63 = 0
Factors of -63 that have a sum of -2 are -9 and +7. Then the factored equation is ...
(x -9)(x +7) = 0
Solutions make the factors zero.
x -9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9
x +7 = 0 ⇒ x = -7
The solutions to the quadratic equation are x = -7 and x = 9.
