We have been given an equation 9y=45x and we are asked to find the constant of proportionality of this equation.

In order to find constant of proportionality we will use proportionality constant formula y=kx , where k is proportionality constant.

Now let us try to write our given equation in this form,

9y=45x

Now let us divide both sides of our equation by 9

\frac{9y}{9}=\frac{45x}{9}

After dividing both sides of our equation by 9 we will get

y=5x

Upon comparing our equation with  y=kx we get proportionality constant as 5.

Divide by the coefficient of y.
  y = (45/9)x
  y = 5x

The constant of proportionality is 5.

Why is - x < 3 equivalent to x > - 3? Provide a convincing argument.
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

-x<3 is the same as x>-3 because when you divide -x<3 by -1 on both sides it ends up as x>-3. (They're the same thing just one isn't simplified.)
