Answer:

The equation for constant of proportionality is:

y = kx

K = Constant of proportionality

An example:

4y = 8x

There are 24 pens in a desk drawer. The pens are either red or blue. The ratio of red pens to blue pens is 5:1. How many pens ar
Flura [38]

Answer:

The number of red pens is 20.

The number of blue pens is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, the ratio of number of red pens to the number of blue pens is 5 : 1.

∴ Let us assume that the number of red pens be 5<em>x</em> and number of blue pens be <em>x</em>.

Total number of pens in the desk drawer = 24

Now, according to question :

Number of red pens + Number of blue pens = 24

⇒5<em>x</em> + <em>x</em> = 24

⇒6<em>x</em> = 24

⇒x=\frac{24}{6}=4

So, number of red pens in the drawer = 5<em>x</em> = 5 × 4 = 20

Number of blue pens in the drawer = <em>x</em> = 4

Bumek [7]

Answer:

m= 4, b = 3 matches with y = 4x +3

m=5, b = -2 matches with y = 5x - 2

m = 3, b = 4 matches with y = 3x + 4

m = -2, b=5 matches with y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is <em>y = mx + b</em><em> </em>in which m = slope and b = y-intercept
