Which equation describes a relationship that is directly proportional?

Mathematics
1 answer:
mixer [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(C) y = 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Directly proportional relation is one in which the value of x and y gets increases or decreased in same proportion.

example of such relation can be y = kx

where k is the constant of proportionality which depicts by how much value of  y will change in response to change of x.

_______________________________________________

now in the option

A and B

y= 9 , y =1/5

value of y is constant and does not depend on other variable. it value will remain same.

for y = x+4

value of y increases with x but it does not increase proportionally.

let see an example for x =1 , y = 1+4 = 5

x =2 , y = 2+4 = 6

(1,5)  and (2,6) are not proportionally changing also this equation is not of form y = kx

thus, it is incorrect option.

_______________________________

(C) y = 3x

here equation is form y =kx .  in place of k there is 3

let see an example for x =1 , y = 3*1 = 3

x =2 , y = 3*2 = 6

(1,3)  and (2,6) are  proportionally changing (1/3 = 2/6) also this equation is  of form y = kx

thus, it is correct option.

exis [7]
Hey!

We can round 75,364 to 75,000 and 472,756 to 473,000


75,000 + 473,000 = 548,000

So, the answer is B. 548,000 =)

1. In the given figure O is the centre and PQ is the diameter of the circle. if the chord PR is produced to S and QR is joined t
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

90°

Step-by-step explanation:

since PQ is the diameter of the circle, m <em>L</em><em> </em>PRQ = ½ × 180° = 90°.

so, as a supplementary to <em>L</em><em> </em>PRQ, the value of angle QRS = 180 - m <em>L</em><em> </em>PRQ = 180-90 =90°
