Answer:

x = -1.42

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of a number x and twelve would be: x/12.

But the problem tells us that seven less than this quotient is 5 times the number. Written as an equation and solving for x this would be:

\frac{x}{12}-7=5x\\\frac{x-84}{12} =5x\\ x-84=(12)(5x)\\x-84=60x\\-84=59x\\-84/59=x\\-1.42 = x

Therefore x = -1.42

Answer:

The ordered pairs (3 , 6) , (5 , 10) show a proportional relationship ⇒ last answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to sole the problem

- Proportional relationship describes a simple relation between

 two variables

- In direct proportion if one variable increases, then the other variable

 increases and if one variable decreases, then the other variable

 decreases

- In inverse proportion if one variable increases, then the other variable

 decreases and if one variable decreases, then the other variable

 increases

- The ratio between the two variables is always constant

- Ex: If x and y are in direct proportion, then x = ky, where k

 is constant

 If x and y in inverse proportion, then x = k/y, where k is constant

* Lets solve the problem

# Last table

∵ x = 3 and y = 6

∴ x/y = 3/6 = 1/2

∵ x = 5 and y = 10

∴ x/y = 5/10 = 1/2

∵ 1/2 is constant

∵ x/y = constant

∴ x and y are proportion

* The ordered pairs (3 , 6) , (5 , 10) show a proportional relationship
