Nice of you to offer 50 points
the constant of proportinality is the sloep or

x is independent variable and y is dependent variable
the independent variable influences the value of the dependent variable
in this case, the number of months influences the amount of money saved
to find the slope, you do
x=number of months
y=amount
we have
4months, $50
8 months, $100
18 months, $225
or
(x,y)
(4,50)
(8,100)
(18,225)
we can compare
the slope between the points (a,b) and (c,d) is
(d-b)/(c-a)
we can take the slope between any 2 points (assuming the slope is the same, which it is)
(4,50) and (8,100)
slope=(100-50)/(8-4)=50/4=25/2=12.5
the slope is 12.5
2nd option is the answer
We are given statement " gained 20 pounds and loses 15 pounds".
<em>Note: We take plus or positive sign for gain word and we take minus or negative sign for the loses word.</em>
Gained 20 means +20.
Loses 15 mean -15.
Therefore, we can setup an expression as:
<h3>+20 -15.</h3>
20 is a positive number and 15 is a negative number.
Because we have opposite signs of numbers, we would subtract them.
20-15 = 5 pounds.
The correct answer is C. If you reduce the fraction 36/18, it reduces to 2/1 or simply, 2. So, both fractions equal 2.
Answer:
A. 5400-8x
B. $600
Step-by-step explanation:
5400-8x=600
8x=5400-600
x=4800/8=600
Step-by-step explanation:
0+1 = 1
1/2+1/2= 1
-50 + 51= 1
