Divide both sides by -3, and replace with
. Then
Factorize the quadratic in to get
which in turn means
But for all real
, so we can ignore the first solution. This leaves us with
If we allow for any complex solution, then we can continue with the solution we ignored:
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportional relationship is represented by linear function with its linear parameter "b" equal to zero. Since b is equal to zero, the line passes through the origin and the function/relation is proportional.
To verify that we divide the y coordinate over the x coordinate we obtain a constant called k, which is the slope.
For instance:
According to this function we can easily check a proportional relationship among its points:
