Answer:

y=3x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

insert the first point into y=mx+b

3=2m+b

----------------

Do it again with the other point

6=3m+b

-------------

Now put both equations in a system of equations

3=2m+b

6=3m+b

solve for m and b

m=3 and b=-3

y=3x-3

m=slope

b=y-intercept

Bob has a dog who weighs 12 pounds. His cat weighs 2/3 as much as the dog. How many pounds does his cat weigh?

zheka24 [161]

The dog weighs 12 lbs.
The cat weighs 2/3 as much as the dog

- Divide 12 by 3
= 4

- Then multiply by 2
= 8

His cat weighs 8 pounds.

I need help with this math question :(

Answer:

k = 5,

y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

If y is proportional to x,

y ∝ x

Then the equation will be

y = kx

Her k = proportionality constant.

Now we choose a point from the given table.

Let the point is (2, 10).

By putting the values of x and y in the equation,

10 = 2×k

k = $\frac{10}{2}$

k = 5

This will be true for any point we choose from the table.

And the equation will be y = 5x
