All direct proportional graphs go through the origin (0,0). So this is where one point could go. The second point is found by going up 5 units and then to the right 3 units to get to (3,5)
<h3>Draw a straight line through (0,0) and (3,5) to graph</h3>
The equation of this line is y = (5/3)x
100% = 50
1% = 50/100 = 0.5
52% = 0.5 x 52 = 26
There are 26 green jelly beans in the jar:)
Hi there.
They are basically asking how you could change the graph in a way so that the change in wins isn't as noticeable. This can be done by starting at zero number of wins on the y-axis.
Answer:
Length = 6
Width = 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the variable x to represent the width:
x = width
The question says that the length of the rectangle is "5 ft less than double the width". This length can be represented like this:
2x - 5 = length
To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply the width and length, so we are going to write an equation where we multiply the width and length and set it equal to 33 ft^2, which is the area:
(x)(2x - 5) = 33
Now use basic algebra to solve for x:
2x^2 - 5x = 33
2x^2 - 5x - 33 = 0
2x^2 + 6x - 11x - 33 = 0
(2x^2 + 6x) + (-11x - 33) = 0
2x(x + 3) - 11(x + 3) = 0
(2x - 11) (x + 3) = 0
x = 11/2, -3
x either equals 11/2 or -3. However, remember that x represents the width, and you can't have a negative number for a width, so x = 11/2 or 5.5.
Now plug in 5.5 to the length expression and simplify:
2(5.5) - 5
11 - 5 = 6
The length is 6 and the width is 5.5.

The problem is simply asking as to convert the measurement from the smaller scale to the actual scale. For this, we simply multiply the factor to the smaller measurement. We do as follows:
Length = 1 1/8 x 8 = 9 ft
Hope this helps.
