Answer:

y/x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∝ x

change ∝ to = by adding constant k or c

y = kx

Divide both sides by x

y/x = k, also k = y/x

Input the values

k = (7 1/2)/3.  Change 7 1/2 to improper fraction to give 15/2

k = (15/2)/3

k = \frac{15}{2} ÷ 3  

Change the division sign to multiplication which will change 3 to its inverse(1/3)

k = \frac{15}{2} × \frac{1}{3}

k = \frac{15}{6}

Divide the numerator and denominator by 3 to get 5/2

k = 5/2

From y/x = k,input k into the eqn

y/x = 5/2

y/x = 2.5

The answer actually is 4,245 BUT that is the correct way to do it because you take the smaller population away from the larger population in order to find their difference in sizes.

What is the place value of 1 in 153,732,991
pentagon [3]
Well, the first 1 is in the (hundred) millions place and the 1 towards the end is in the one's place

Just, put the numbers on a place value graph and the answer should come to you if you put them in the right order. If you don't have a place value grid then get a printable one off of the Internet
