Answer:
k = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the equation is y = kx and x equals 3 while y equals 15, in order to solve this equation we are going to have to substitute the variables with their answers:
x = 3
y = 15
15 = 3k
Now we divide 3 from both 3x and 15 to segregate the variable x:
15/3 = 3k/3
5 = k
Now to check our work we are going to substitute 5 for the variable k, 3 for the variable x and 15 for the variable y.
y = kx
15= (5)(3)
15 = 15
Tada, I hope this helps you!

Answer:
Some integers are irrational
Step-by-step explanation:
An integer must be a whole number so it will always be rational.
A 0 because you can not subtract 2-5 or the rest
Answers:
-3.5 < 5
|-3.5| < |5|
============================================
Explanation:
Any negative number is <u>always</u> smaller than any positive number. So that's why -3.5 is smaller than 5 and where -3.5 < 5 comes from. It might help to set up a vertical number line. Stuff on top is larger than stuff down below.
---------
The vertical bars represent absolute value. The result of |-3.5| is 3.5 because this is the distance from -3.5 to 0 on the number line. Likewise, |5| = 5.
So that's how we get to |-3.5| < |5| which is effectively saying -3.5 is closer to zero than 5 is to zero.
