We know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form or
With the point 1 or the point 2 find the value of the constant k
Point 1 (-8,-6)
x=-8
y=-6
substitute
y/x=k
-6/-8=k
k= 3/4

therefore
the equation is
y= 3/4x
the answer is the option
y= 3/4x

The population of a city in Texas is about 1,030,000. The population of the city in t years can be predicted using the equation
Nitella [24]

Answer:

  2,856,271

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume your equation is intended to be ...

  P = 1,030,000(1.12)^t

To find the prediction in 9 years, put 9 where t is and do the arithmetic.

  P = 1030000(1.12^9) ≈ 2,856,271

In 9 years, the population is predicted to be about 2,856,271.

Assume a quarter, diameter 0.96 inches, is centered at the point (–2, 5), where each unit represents one inch. Write the equatio
storchak [24]
If the diameter of this circle is .96, then the radius is .48.  The h and k values of our center are (-2, 5), and the standard form of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2.  We will fill in accordingly.  (x-(-2))^2+(y-5)^2=.48^2.  That simplifies to (x+2)^2+(y-5)^2=.2304.  That's the equation of the circle that will completely enclose the quarter.

Graph the line of the equation x4+y=−2 using its slope and y-intercept
k0ka [10]

Answer:

y-intercept = c = -2

slope = y = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct equation is:

4x + y =  -2

We need to graph the line using its slope and y-intercept. The slope intercept form of the equation is:

y = mx + c

Here, m is the slope and c is the y-intercept. Transforming the given equation to this form gives us:

y = - 4x - 2

This means, the slope is:

m = - 4

and y-intercept is:

c = - 2

y-intercept in ordered pair is written as (0, c). So for the given case the y intercept will be (0, -2). This gives us first point on the graph.

The slope tells us that by how many units will the y variable will change for one unit change in x-axis.

So slope, m = - 4, tells us that the y-variable will change by negative 4 units for 1 unit change in x variable.

Based on this change, we can get another point from (0, -2) which will be (0+1, -2 - 4) = (1, - 6)

This gives us the second point on the graph. Plot these two points and join them using a straight line. This straight line will be the graph of equation y = 4x - 2 or 4x + y = -2

The graph is attached below.
