Increase 19060 by 9%

Answer:
Each will have passed 17 tests and it will take 3 weeks.

Explanation: 
Let x be the number of weeks.
The number of tests Travis passes to begin with is 11.
We then add 2 tests per week, or 2x to that, giving us:
11+2x.

The number of tests Jenifer has passed to begin with is 2.
We then add 5 tests per week, or 5x to that, giving us:
2+5x.

Setting these equal, we have: 
11+2x=2+5x.

Subtract 2x from each side: 
11+2x-2x=2+5x-2x;
11=2+3x.

Subtract 2 from each side: 
11-2=2+3x-2;
9=3x.

Divide both sides by 3:
 $\frac{9}{3} = \frac{3x}{3}$ ;
3=x.

It will take 3 weeks.
In 3 weeks,
Travis will have passed:
11+2*3 = 11+6 = 17 tests.
Jenifer will have passed the same number, since she catches up with him at this point.

Answer:

As the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x is same. Hence, the equation y = x REPRESENTS a proportional relationship.
As the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x+2 is not same. Hence, the equation y = x + 2 DOES NOT REPRESENT a proportional relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving equation A: y = x 

Let us consider the given equation A:

y = x

Putting x = 1 in y = x

y = x

y = 1 ∵ x = 1

Hence, (1, 1) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 2 in y = x

y = x

y = 2 ∵ x = 2

Hence, (2, 2) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 3 in y = x

y = x

y = 3 ∵ x = 3

Hence, (3, 3) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 4 in y = x

y = x

y = 4 ∵ x = 4

Hence, (4, 4) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 5 in y = x

y = x

y = 5 ∵ x = 5

Hence, (5, 5) is the ordered pair of y = x

Lets us consider all the ordered pairs i.e. (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4) and (5, 5) to make a table for y = x.

y x

1 1

2 2

3 3

4 4

5 5

As from the table, lets take the ratio of every point i.e. y/x

For (1, 1), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 1/1 = 1
For (2, 2), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 2/2 = 1
For (3, 3), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 3/3 = 1
For (4, 4), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 4/4 = 1
For (5, 5), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 5/5 = 1

Hence, the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x is same. Hence, the equation y = x REPRESENTS a proportional relationship. Please also check the graph in attached figure a.

Solving equation A: y = x +2

Let us consider the given equation A:

y = x + 2

Putting x = 1 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 1 + 2 ⇒ 3 ∵ x = 1

Hence, (1, 3) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 2 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 2 +2 ⇒ 4 ∵ x = 2

Hence, (2, 4) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 3 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 3 + 2 ⇒ 5 ∵ x = 3

Hence, (3, 5) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 4 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 4 + 2 ⇒ 6 ∵ x = 4

Hence, (4, 6) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 5 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 5 +2 ⇒ 7 ∵ x = 5

Hence, (5, 7) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Lets us consider all the ordered pairs i.e. (1, 3), (2, 4), (3, 5), (4, 6) and (5, 7) to make a table for y = x + 2.

y x + 2

1 3

2 4

3 5

4 6

5 7

As from the table, lets take the ratio of every point i.e. y/x

For (1, 3), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 3/1 = 3
For (2, 4), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 4/2 = 2
For (3, 5), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 5/3 = 5/3
For (4, 6), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 6/4 = 3/2
For (5, 7), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 7/5 = 7/5

Hence, the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x+2 is not same. Hence, the equation y = x + 2 DOES NOT REPRESENT a proportional relationship. Please also check the graph in attached figure a.
