Answer:
y = -1/4x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to write this equation in slope intercept form, which looks like this: y = mx + b. First, write the equation using the slope given. It should look like this:
y = -1/4x + b
Next, you must find the y intercept by plugging in the point to the equation. This is what it looks like: 0 = -1/4(-8) + b. Multiply -1/4 by -8 to get 2. This is what your equation should look like now: 0 = 2 + b. Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation to get -2 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug -2 in for b. This is your final equation:
y = -1/4x - 2
Hope this helped!
The function is always positive.
(0,5) is the y-intercept, since the graphed line never crosses the x axis, there is no x-intercept.
The function is positive and greater than 4 for all values of x
Not sure what the actual choices are on a couple of the questions. The choices would help answering.
Given:
y is proportional to x.
y=10 and x=8.
To find:
The constant of proportionality and the equation for the proportional relationship.
Solution:
y is proportional to x.

...(i)
Where, k is the constant of proportionality.
Putting y=10 and x=8, we get



Putting
in (i), we get

Therefore, the contestant of proportionality is
and the equation for the proportional relationship is
