Answer:

a) not proportional

b) proportional; k = $-\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) for any proportional equation, the line must pass through the origin. The equation in a) is y = 4x + 1, and the '+1' is the y-intercept. This means that the line does not pass through the origin, so x and y cannot increase by the same amount (i.e. they are not proportional).

Another way to determine this is is to use the y = kx base. If you have an equation that fits that it's likely proportional.

Here, if the equation was only y = 4x then it'd be proportional because u can see that k = 4. This is not the equation though, and the 4x + 1 doesn't fit to the y = kx formula so it can't be proportional.

b) straight away you can see that there's no 'c' term (y = mx + c) which means the y-intercept is 0, so the line passes through the origin. While this does not immediately mean the line is proportional, you can make sure that it is by checking it fits with the y = kx equation.

y = -(3/5)x fits with y = kx, with k being -3/5

in a canoe race, a team paddles downstream 480 m in 60 s. The same team makes the trip upstream in 80 s. Find the team's rate in

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

480=60(v+s)

480=60v+60s

8=v+s

s=8-v...

480=80(v-s) using s from above we get:

480=80(v-(8-v))

6=v-8+v

6=2v-8

2v=14

v=7, and since s=8-v, s=1

So the rate of the team is 7m/s while the rate of the stream is 1m/s

If p varies inversely with q, and p = 2 when q = 1, find the<br>equation that relates p and q.

NeTakaya

Answer:

p = $\frac{2}{q}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p varies inversely with q then the equation relating them is

p = $\frac{k}{q}$ ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition p = 2 when q = 1, thus

k = pq = 2 × 1 = 2

p = $\frac{2}{q}$ ← equation of variation

A hollow metal sphere has 6 cm inner and 8cm outer radii. The surface charge densities on the exterior surface is +100 nC/m2 and

natulia [17]

Answer:

<h2>Outer Electric Field is 11250 N/C.</h2><h2>Inner Electric Field is -10000 N/C.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to read carefully and analyse the problem. As you can see, is an electrical subject, and it's given surface charge densities and radius.

So, to calculate electric fields, we need to find the proper equation to do so: $E=k\frac{q}{r^{2} }$ ; as you can see, first we need to find the charges.

We can find all charges using the surface charge densities, because it has the next relation: $p=\frac{q}{A}$ ; which indicates that charge density is the amount of charge per area. But, there's a problem, we don't have areas, so we have to calculate them first with this relation: $S=4\pi r^{2}$ ; which gives us the surface of a sphere.
