<span>The correct answer is that y does not vary directly with x.
Explanation<span>:
If y varies directly with x, this means that it would fit the equation y=kx for every point in the set.
For the first point, we would have 11=7k; this would mean that k=11//7.
For the second point, we would have 13=8k; this would mean that k=13/8.
Checking using proportions shows us that 11/7 does not equal 13/8:
cross multiply, and you have 11*8=7*13, or 88=91.
This is not true, so k is not a constant, and y does not vary directly with x.</span></span>
Answer:
The equation is;
y = -1/4x + 607.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us have the number of drops as y axis while the number of minutes is x axis
The points to use are;
(30,600) and (130,575)
The slope can be calculated using;
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (575-600)/(130-30) = -25/100 = -1/4
So the equation as we model using the normal equation of a straight line (y = mx + c, m is slope and c is the intercept)
y = -1/4x + c
To get c, we simply substitute one point
Let us use (30,600)
We have
600 = -1/4(30) + c
600 + 7.5 = c
c = 607.5
So the equation is ;
y = -1/4x + 607.5
Options C, D, E. You should be able to simplify each one and realise that CDE does not equal the given equation
Why are the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut important?
Y=mx+b
m is slope
b is y intercept The equation to find the slope is 2nd y-1st y/2nd x- 1st x
2-(-2)/5-0 = 4/5 They m is equal to 4/5 for this equation We know that the y intercept is -2 because you can figure the y intercept when the x is 0
The equation is y=4/5x+0
