If every shelf has the same amount of books, then it can be seen as proportional because one shelf has 43 and 2 have 86, and it keeps going up in a consistent way.
so 43/1 = 86/2 .
Happy studying ^-^
They are similar , scale factor is 3
Answer: 1) You forgot to change the sign over there. You have to subtract over there.
2) Just be careful while solving equations while changing the signs
Rearrange the formula given to determine the slope, you will see that in y=mx+b form the slope is -2/3
You now have the slope (m) and two test points. Input those values into y=mx+b and you will have your answer!
I got y=(-2/3)x+(22/3) which I'm quite certain is correct.
