Answer:
a = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
a = 18
b = 3
This is a direct proportion question.
Therefore, a is directly proportional to b.
Mathematically, a = kb
First of all we would find the constant, k;
k = a/b
k = 18/3
k = 6
Now to find the value of a when b = 5
a = kb
a = 6*5
a = 30
21 picks
altogether (2x+5x)=21
7x=21
x=3
2*3=6 orange picks
or
x=orange, y = greens
x+y=21
x/y=2/5,----> y=5x/2
x+5x/2=21
2x/2+5x/2=21
7x/2=21
7x=42,
x=6 orange picks
Step-by-step explanation:
A relationahip is proportional if both variables can be both 0.
y = 0.5x
(0) = 0.5(0)
Since the equality is true, it is proportional.
To graph the function, plot (0, 0) and (10, 5) on the graph and draw a line through the points.
