Y = mx + b
m = (0 - -5)/(6 - 3) = 5/3
y = 5/3x + b
0 = 5/3(6) + b
b = -10
(y = 5/3x - 10)3
3y = 5x - 30
3y - 5x = -30
5x - 3y = 30
See attached picture for the answers:
As the variation is direct we have:

We must find the value of k.
For this, we use the following data:
y = 200 when x = 5
Substituting values we have:

Clearing k:

Then, the function is:

We evaluate the function for x = -3
Answer:
the value of y when x = -3 is:
c.
72
Guessing you meant by a factor of 3... not 13 since none of the solutions are anywhere close to that.
to compress is to smoosh.
It's the equation of a line. If you smoosh it vertically the line becomes flatter and the slope smaller.
Essentially g(x) = 3f(x)
3y = 12x + 6
y = (12/3)x + 6/3
y = 4x + 2
They should get $7.50, because you multiply the adults by two, then the children by three, and add it all together
