The graph of a proportional relationship contains the point (-30, 18)

Elena L [17]

Answer:

$k=-\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

we have the point (-30,18)

x=-30, y=18

Find the value of k

$k=\frac{y}{x}$

substitute

$k=\frac{18}{-30}$

Simplify

Divide by 6 both numerator and denominator

$k=-\frac{3}{5}$

Lilly has read seven-eighths of her book and is on page 147. How many pages does lilly have left to read?

lara [203]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Lilly has read 7/8 of her book (aka 147 pages), divide 147 by 7 and you get 21.

This means 1/8=21

Since she has read 7/8 of the book, and the full book is 8/8, 8/8-7/8= 1/8

Meaning she has 1/8 of the book left to read.

As said before, 1/8 =21

Thus, she has 21 pages left to read.
