Our goal is to get y by itself
We will first add 3x to both sides to get
-5y = 3x - 15
We will then divide both sides by -5 to get y by itself which becomes
y = -3/5x + 3
We have been given that The boston celtics have won 16 nba championships over approximately 50 years. Therefore, it can be concluded that in any given year the probability of celtics winning the title will be p = 16/50 = 0.32
For Celtics to win eight straight championships in 1959, we will be required to multiply the probability of winning championship in one year to itself 8 times.
Therefore, the required probability is:

Therefore, the required probability is almost 0.00011.
Answer:
A. y=7x+18
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there! :D
Think of it this way. The question is saying that the text messages are all equally the same value, or expense. If you were to divide 16 by $3.20, you would find that each text was the same amount to send. That the input (the number of text messages) is directly related in the same pattern to the output (the cost of the text messages).
A. What is the constant of proportionality in this proportional relationship?
A constant of proportionality is what makes x directly relate in proportion to y. We are trying to find the variable that makes y= (?)x
16y= 3.20x
Divide both sides by 16.
y=0.20x or y=0.2x
The constant is the value that goes with the variable. .20 is the constant. '
B. Write an equation to represent this proportional relationship. Make sure to define the variables you use.
We already know that 0.20 is the constant number. In other words, every text message cost $.20.
Text messages= T cost= C
C= T(0.20)
For every text message (T), it is multiplied by 0.20, to make the accurate cost (C).
I hope this helps!
