Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem we have

This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form

where

The given equation not represent a proportional relationship, because the line not pass through the origin

In a proportional relationship the value of b (y-intercept) is equal to zero

nasty-shy [4]

Solution:

we are given that

Last month, Doug's neighbor paid him $55 for 6 hours of mowing.

we have been asked that

Is this situation most likely a proportional relationship?

yes..its as proportional relationship.

Because the amount that Doug get is $55 for 6 hours

It mean for each hour Doug get is $\frac{55}{6}$ $

It mean if you increase the number of hours then the number of dollars get paid also increases. Hence the given situation is most likely a proportional relationship.

Answer:

7) circumference = 11.78 ft

8) arc NMP = 198° or 27.63 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

7) circumference = πd = (3.14) (3 3/4) = 11.78 ft

8) radius = 8 ft

diameter = 2 x 8 = 16 ft

arc NM + arc QP = 360° - 162° - 162° = 36°

arc NM = arc QP because they are arcs of vertical angles.

arc QP = 18°

arc NMQ = 180°

arc NMP = 180° + 18° = 198°

circumference = πd = (3.14)(16) = 50.24 ft

(198°/360°)(50.24) = 27.63 ft
