Assuming the five frame is for the number five (5) then place 5 counters in the frame.
Make an equation.
80% = 0.8
'of' is multiplication
'what number' is 'x'
'is' is an equal sign
0.8 * x = 64
0.8x = 64
Divide 0.8 to both sides:
x = 80
If you graph out y = x^2 - 1, you'll see that it is a curved parabola. It is not a straight line. So visually this shows the equation is not linear. It's considered nonlinear.
Algebraically, the given equation does not fit the form y = mx+b which is slope intercept form. So this is more confirmation that we do not have a linear function.
Answer: x = 13.5
3/4 = x/18
⇔ x = 3/4 .18 = 27/2 = 13.5
