i believe it is -5 over 9
Answer:
8.
Denote the equation : y = ax + b
Use the first 2 values of x and y in table:
3a + b = 21
5a + b = 35
Subtract the 2 equations:
=> 2a = 14 => a = 7 => b = 21 - 3 x 7 = 0
=> The solution is y = 7x
9.
Denote the equation : y = ax + b
Use the first 2 values of x and y in table:
5a + b = 17
10a + b = 22
Subtract the 2 equations:
=> 5a = 5 => a = 1 => b = 17 - 5 x 1 = 17 - 5 = 12
=> The solution is y = x + 12
Hope this helps!

solving proportions is simply a matter of stating the ratios as fractions, setting the two fractions equal to each other, cross-multiplying, and solving the resulting equation. You'll probably start out by just solving proportions, like this:
<span><span><span>Find the unknown value in the proportion: </span><span>2 : x = 3 : 9.</span></span><span>2<span> :</span> x = 3<span> :</span> 9</span>First, I convert the colon-based odds-notation ratios to fractional form:.Then I solve the proportion:<span>
</span><span>9(2) = </span><span>x(3)</span> <span>
1</span><span>8 = 3x</span><span>
</span><span>6 = x</span></span><span><span><span>Find the unknown value in the proportion: </span><span>(2x + 1) : 2 = (x + 2) : 5</span></span><span>(2x + 1)<span> :</span> 2 = (x + 2)<span> :</span> 5</span><span><span> ADVERTISEMENT</span><span> </span></span>First, I convert the colon-based odds-notation ratios to fractional form:Then I solve the proportion:<span>
</span><span>5(2x + 1) = 2(x + 2)</span><span>
</span><span>10x + 5 = 2x + 4</span><span>
</span><span>8x = –1</span><span>
</span><span>x = –1/<span>8</span></span></span>
<span>5.47722557505 is the square root of 30 </span>
12, 4, 4/3 has a common ratio.
