Which graph represents a proportional relationship?

Mathematics
1 answer:
nikdorinn [45]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

On a coordinate plane, a straight line with positive slope goes through points (3, 3) and (4, 4).

Step-by-step explanation:

both points when divided (y÷x) should give the same answer for it to be proportional

meaning

4÷4 = 1 and 3÷3 = 1

Answer:

D. On a coordinate plane, a straight line with positive slope goes through points (3, 3) and (4, 4).

Explanation:

For a relationship to be proportional it needs to meet two conditions:

1) its graph needs to be a straight line

2) every point of the graph needs to satisty the equation y = k•x, or, in other words k has to be equal for every point

Now, let's check the answers;

A) we have two points: A (2, 6) and B (4, 5). For point A, x is 2 and y is 6, so:

y = k•x

6 = k•2

k = 3

For point B, x is 4 and y is 5, so:

y = k•x

5 = k•4

k= 5/4

Since k isn't the same value for these two points, this isn't proprtional relationship.

B) this graph is curve, so since it's not a straight line it can't be proportional relationship.

C) similarly to graph A we have point A (5, 2) and point B (6, 3).

For point A, x is 5 and y is 2, so:

y = k•x

2 = k•5

k = 2/5

For point B, x is 6 and y is 3, so:

y = k•x

3 = k•6

k = 1/2

Again values of k aren't the same, so this isn't a proportional relationship.

D) Point A (3, 3) and point B (4, 4). For point A, x is 3 and y is 3, so:

y = k•x

3 = k•3

k = 1

For point B, x is 4 and y is 4, so:

y = k•x

4 = k•4

k = 1

Since value of k is the same for both points, this graph shows the proportional relationship.

The population of a small town was 3500 in 2005. The population increases by 4% annually. A. Write an exponential growth functio
nika2105 [10]

Answer: The population in 2025 will be 7669

Step-by-step explanation:

a) When we have an initial quantity A, and we have an increase of the X%, the new quantity is written as:

new quantity = A + A*(X%/100%) = A*(1 + X%/100%)

In this case, our initial quantity is 3500, the town's population in 2005.

And X% = 4%.

We know that each year, the population increases by 4%.

Then if P(1) is the population one year after 2005, this is:

P(1) = 3500*(1 + 4%/100%) = 3500*(1.04)

After another year, the population increases again:

P(2) = (3500*(1.04))*(1 + 4%/100%)) = 3500*(1.04)*(1.04) = 3500*(1.04)^2

Well, we already can see the pattern here, the population N years after 2005 will be:

P(N) = 3500*(1.04)^N

b) Now we want to know the population in 2025.

N represents the number of years after 2005, then we will have:

N = 2025 - 2005 = 20

2025 is 20 years after 2005.

Then the population in 2025 will be:

P(20) = 3500*(1.04)^20 = 7,668.9

And we can not have a 0.9 of a person, so we should round it up to the next whole number, then the population in 2025 will be 7669

Arisa [49]
5.7*10^9-300,000,000= 5,400,000,000
5,400,000,000=5.4*10^9
So the cell phone users worldwide is 5.4*10^9 more than the cell phone users in USA.

Data: (12 ,8 , 6 , 12 , 16 , 12 ) median ............. mode......
Vesna [10]
Ascending order=  6, 8, 12, 12, 12, 16

No of observations (n) = 6
Median = Mean of the values of (n/2) and (n/2+1)
             = Mean values of 3rd and 4th values
             = 12+12/2
             = 12
Therefore, median = 12

Mode = Most number of observations= 12
