The table shows a proportional relationship between the number of stars Roberto collects in a game and his total points. A row o
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

1) 20 stars; 30 points.

2) 28 stars, 42 points.

3) 38 stars, 57 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The missing table is attached.</h3>

Let  be "x" the numbers of stars Roberto collects and "y" his total points.

The proportional relationship has this form:

y=kx

Where "k" is the constant of proportionality.

We can choose the point (8,12) from the table, where:

x=8\\y=12

Substituting these values into  y=kx and solving for "k", we get:

 12=k(8)\\\\\frac{12}{8}=k\\\\k=1.5

Knowing the value of "k", we determine that the  following Numbers of stars and the Total points could be used as the missing values in the table:

1) For x=20 :

y=(1.5)(20)=30

2) For x=28 :

y=(1.5)(28)=42

3) For x=38 :

y=(1.5)(38)=57

A number decreased by fifteen is less than two.
Aliun [14]

Let us assume number of n.

The number is decreased by 15.

Decreasing by 15 means, we need to subtract 15 from that number.

So, it would be come n-15.

Now, it is said that the number would become less than 2.

So, we need to setup an inequality:

n-15 is less than 2.

<h3>n-15 < 2  : required inequality .</h3>

Adding 15 on both sides, we get

n-15+15 < 2+15

n < 17.

<h3>So, we could say the number would be less than 17.</h3>
