Answer:
- No, there is no proportional relationship
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The proportional relationship is:</u>
- y = kx, which is a special form of linear equation, with zero y-intercept
<u>In the given case we have:</u>
This is a linear function but not proportional relationship because it has y-intercept, different than zero
Cow- 1/3 = 12/36
goose- 1/12 = 3/36
goat= 2/9 = 8/36
12 + 3 + 8 = 23/36
23/36 is the fraction of the snack left
The given equations are:
5x - 2y = 88
3x + 4y = 58
Multiplying the 1st equation by 2, we get the new set of equations as:
10x - 4y = 176
3x + 4y = 58
Adding the two equations, we get:
10x - 4y + 3x + 4y = 176 + 58
13x =234
x = 18
Using the value of x in 1st equation, we get:
5(18) - 2y = 88
- 2y = 88 -5(18)
-2y = -2
y = 1
So, the solution of the equation is (18, 1)
