Answer:
y=x is the correct answer
Explanation:
A linear equation is an equation between two variables that gives a straight line when plotted on a graph.
Why the other ones are incorrect:
y=√x gives a radical function graph
y=x^3 gives a cubic graph
y=x^2 gives a parabola
Ranking is very critical in this problem. Therefore, the most applicable mathematical theory is permutations.
Ranking possible for the cellists:
Needed cellists = 5
Total available cellists = 10
Possible number of rankings = 10P5 = 10!/(10-5)! = 30240
Ranking possible for the violinists:
Needed violinists = 5
Total available = 16
Possible number of rankings = 16P5 = 16!/(16-5)! = 524160
Therefore,
Ratio of rankings (cellists to violinists) = 30240/524160 = 3/52
Angle 2 is 143
angle 4 is 37
angle 7 is 143
angle 8 is 37
£100 - £y would be left :D
