Help please! Could you explain it too?

Anettt [7]2 years ago

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

Kristin has 4 more headbands than Nikki does. Together they have 30 headbands. The equation h + (h+ 4) = 30 can be used to
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

A) H+4

Step-by-step explanation:

I do this in a different way, but i'll do it in both

Mine:

30 ÷ 2 = 15

4 ÷ 2 = 2

15+2, 15 -2

17, 13

Kristen Has 17

Yours:

h+(h+4)=30

     -4   -4

h+h = 26

2h = 26,

h = 13, Back to the equation, use 13 as a sub. for all the h's

13+(13+4) = 30

13 + 17 = 30

Hope this helps!

Seth's mother brought home 3/4 of a chocolate cake and 1/2 of a vanilla cake that was left from a party at her work. Seth ate 1/
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

1/4 of the cake.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he ate 1/3 of 3/4 of the chocolate cake, we will need to multiply fractions to solve this.

\frac{3}{4} * \frac{1}{3} =  \frac{3}{12}  = \frac{1}{4}

Therefore, he ate 1/4 of the entire cake.
