Answer:

-\dfrac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

When variable y is said to be proportional to another variable x, it is written as:

y \propto x

To introduce the equality sign, we introduce what is called the constant of proportionality, say k and write the above as:

y=kx

Comparing the given equation:

y=-\frac{2}{3}x

We can see that our constant of proportionality:

k=-\dfrac{2}{3}

Can someone please answer number 14 a, b and c? Thank you.
Harrizon [31]
For a, we have 42in/9ft. Since 12 inches are in 1 foot, we can multiply it by that to get (42in/9ft)*(1ft/12inches) = 42/108. We put the foot on the top of 1ft/12in to cancel them out. Since 2 goes into both 42 and 108, we divide it by 2/2 to get 26/54. Repeating the process again, we get 13/27

If we were to say that there are 12 inches in a foot and therefore divide 42 by 12 (to get 42 inches in feet), we'd get the same answer due to that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches and if you were to divide it by 1 foot/12 inches, since they are the same thing, you get the same answer

For c, since it may be hard to get (42/12)/9, it could just be easier to have 42/(9*12)=42/108
